Just had to post a "happy spring" to everyone on this beautiful day! The sun is shining and it's just a teaser of what's to come. Hopefully our garden will look as good this spring as it did last year.
Lily is currently getting over a double ear infection. No fun. If I could be sick instead of her, I would. She definitely hasn't been feeling herself, but she was still smiling - even through her little cough and red eyes. Last night when Greg got home she had the biggest grin ever. She loves her daddy. Greg said, "well, aren't you just the cutest little daughter I ever did have!" Made me laugh!
Anyway, I wanted to post part of a poem my friend MT wrote on her blog - very creative!

An Ode to Spring
Oh warmth, how we’ve missed you with all this cold weather,
Sledding is fun, but sunshine is better
For running and playing and staying outside
For swinging and sliding and nice long wagon rides.
Hot cocoa, we like how you’ve warmed up our tummies
But we have to admit, lemonade sure sounds yummy.
We’ve kept warm by eating chili and stew,
But grilled chicken and burgers, how we miss you!
Oh winter, we know that you’re not all that bad.
You’re the source of much of the fun that we’ve had.
But spring, what you offer sounds wonderfully great
Flip flops and flowers and sunshine til late.

Before you know it, summer will be here. I may be jumping ahead of myself, but these pictures remind me of what's coming...
Sitting outside eating oysters...does it get any better? This was from our stop in SF on the way home from Hawaii.
