Searching for Spring

     I have lived in Wisconsin my entire life (well, except a few months that i lived in Minneapolis). I should be used to the fickle days in March- how they flow back and forth between winter and spring. But the older I get, the more I wish, hope and pray for early spring weather. I am like a child waiting for Santa on Christmas Eve.      I am dreaming of the soon to be days of:
  • Throwing open the windows
  • Going outside with just jeans and a t-shirt
  • Flip flops and flats
  • Feeling the sun vibrate my skin
  • Hiking in the woods
  • Riding my bike
  • Long walks in the neighborhood and through the ravine
  • Planting flowers
  • Hanging summer lights on the patio
  • Watching the birds make nests (and mess up my porch)
  • Hearing the laughter of all the kids in the neighborhood
OH Spring- where art thou?
