Happy Vernal Equinox

Today is the first day of Spring.  The sun is shining, the birds are chirping, and the flowers are in bloom.  How can one not smile on a morning like this?  I know I cannot keep the corners of my mouth from creeping skyward.  When the balance is reached between night and day, all seems right with the world for just a moment.  I cling to that moment and celebrate.

 

Happy Ostara!  Happy Spring!

I am so excited that spring is here! It got up to the mid 50s last night and my son and I went for a run. I couldn't help smiling - just knowing that the weather is bound to get better soon!!

Of course we might get snow again this weekend, but... still. It's spring. And that's good. :)
