spring fever is in the air...

it's that time of the year again...the smell of spring is in the air. this cartoon reminds me so much of my little murph...so often i find her laying in a patch of sun beaming through the window with the hope that she too is laying on the white sand beaches of pass-a-grill, florida! like mother like daughter...it's so refreshing these days to step out in the yard (carefully avoiding myriad landmines) and see the buds coming on the trees and little baby grasses peeking up from the ground...spring is just around the corner. the one thing i do like about spring is that it's a sign of new beginnings - fresh starts... although there are times when new beginning are hard, somehow in the spring it seems so much easier...such a welcome relief...it puts a smile on your face...and refreshs the soul...so, today with it's beautiful sunshine coming through the window or if you have the opprtunity to go out and enjoy the rays...think of today as a new beginning...no matter how small...embrace whatever that new beginning is and enjoy!
