Though not officially spring, the past two days in the mid-Atlantic have been gorgeous! It's been over 70°F and sunny. I've opened all the windows in the house and have sunshine and fresh air pouring in.
I walked outside today and noticed that my tulips are pushing through the ground. My neighbors have beautiful daffodils that are in full bloom. The grass has new green shoots even though it hasn't grown yet, which is good because mowing is a chore.
I know it may not last, it was snowing five days ago, but this is like my personal favorite holiday; that first spring-like day.The dark, dreary and depressing winter is being beaten back by the sun. It makes me feel like I have the strength to keep plodding on in life.
Happy spring, everybody! If it's not there yet, it is coming soon!
PS-If you're in the southern hemisphere, ignore everything I just said. Sorry your summer is coming to an end, but it'll be back. :)
