First day of Spring



First day of spring!! First day of spring!!
I always have my little checklist of spring things to look out for.

1. First robyn (This one tops the cake, it's funny I have yet to meet another person besides my own family who get so excited to see their first robyn. It actually becomes a topic of conversation... I saw my first robyn of the season yesterday) I made such a big deal of it because I wanted Rebecca to enjoy even the most simplest pleasures of spring. I swung the stroller around in the opposite direction of where I was headed, just so she could get a good look.

2. The Canadian Geese come back! I'm not sure why I feel the need to run outside when I hear them calling... Something about that 'V' formation is so appealing to me.

3. April showers bring May flowers. The flowers... Mmmm... I can smell them already.

4. Green. I look for anything green!! I'm just so excited I can see my lawn. It will be even more exciting as the trees begin to bud.

5. The smell of barbecue (who doesn't love this)

Anyway, just a few things to kick off the first day of spring!!
Happy Spring everyone!
