These Are A Few of My Favorite Things...About Spring

So I'm a geek and am pretty excited about this one. I love Spring...LOVE SPRING! The grass starts to turn green, the trees bloom, the flowers bloom. Every day I come home to something new peeking out in my flower garden. Soon it will be time for my hubby and his helper to start the garden.

The other morning we were headed out the door for school and I heard a very excited "MOM! Look, the grass is turning green!" I am not sure who was more excited. 

I left home one day and said to Steve, "some of my flowers are coming up." I then came home home to this...

Okay...that's a bit of an exaggeration since the sky hasn't really been that blue yet and I don't have quite as beautiful looking daffodils, but you get the picture. :)

So here are a few of my other favorite things about Spring...

-the days seem longer because it's light out later
-the kids spend more time outside (I adore hearing their laughter as they play in the driveway and yard)
-the birds visit the bird feeder and it freaks out one of the daughters and makes the rest of us giggle
-the kids get excited about school coming to a close for the year
-Easter is coming!
-softball will be starting for Ms. G
-less clothes!! (I can fit way more pairs of shorts in the washer than jeans!)
-and last, but more importantly, the SUN shines and I am able to feel much needed relief from the evils of depression and anxiety.
