spring?

I was very excited when the snow melted and we had 50 degree weather!!!! Yet a little part of me held back alittle and thought, we are still going to get more snow before spring actually comes. Lo and behold- Sunday we got a couple inches of snow. While the snow is depressing, it is still quite beautiful, especially since it rained first and the trees are covered with ice. Ice is so beautiful....as long as it is not on the road! Still it is a warm snowy day with teperatures in thelow-mid 30s. It is supposed to get up to the mid 40s today...so hopefully the snow will melt. Spring is definitely my favorite season. It is just something about coming out of a long dreary winter to longer days, warmer weather, new life and delicate beauty. It has always been exciting to see the birds come back in the spring, as soon as you see them you know spring is here...or just around the corner. So I am just waiting for spring.
