It’s ALMOST Spring…

20130317-234359.jpgAny guesses? Hint…it’s not snow.
I saw a sign of spring in our “neck of the woods” on Friday. The snow geese have made their way through on their journey back to the northern country. It’s always a welcome sight…as is the return of the Robins. Know what I miss the most during winter? The song of the birds!!! The past couple of weeks, though, the songs have returned. I have to wait till the end of April for my favorite-the “Jenny” wren.

Another sign of Spring? Prom. Taylor attended her senior prom Saturday night.

20130317-234952.jpgI went to her friends house to take pictures…still not feeling 100%. But, Taylor convinced me she didn’t care about how bad I may look so I went. I’m so glad I did. Her very last class “fling” forever. I started feeling the tears well up in my eyes as I drove away from the school. How could it be that she and all these friends that I have grown to love be nearly grown up and leaving? I’ve been pretty close to several of her classmates since they were in kindergarten. The years go WAY TOO FAST! I’m sure those tears won’t be the only ones I shed this spring!

    Hope this finds you feeling better. Hard to be sick at any time, but when you have so much going on it’s hard to get over it. Taylor looks beautiful! So fun to see the young people dressed up. Hope they all had a great time at the prom. The snow geese passed thru here a couple weeks ago on their way north. They always make their stop at the farm to check out the harvested corn fields. I sure hope that means spring is right around the corner! Take care and get well soon! 🙂

    • Margaret,
      I’m feeling SO MUCH BETTER! I am amazed at just how lousy I felt and so thankful that none of the rest of the family have gotten it. I’m done with travels now for a while…until harvest. Now, I have a baby that’s due only days from now to think about and Taylor’s graduation next month. The trailer house will be in the yard before you know it so I sure hope spring is here soon. Although, today, we have snow that needs to be moved so we can have a baby shower. Sick. of. winter!!!

  2. So glad spring is right around the corner! Hope you are finally feeling better.
