Spring is Around the Corner!

Signs Spring is on the way:

The days are getting longer.
I'm no longer frozen when wearing less than three layers.
I can see daffodils just barely peeking up through the soil out front,
Which is only possible because the soil is no longer frozen.
When we get precipitation it comes down as rain and not snow. (Hallelujah!)
The squirrels are acting pretty squirrelly already. (Is there any critter more fun to watch than a couple of squirrels? I wish I had their energy!!)

I am sooo looking forward to warmer temperatures and sunny days. Walking outside, planting veggies and flowers, being outdoor after 7:00 pm without needing a flashlight. Add to that the beauty of the earth waking up and blooming again, and there's no better time of the year to me than spring. I can't wait!
