Sure is a Sunday

Ah, Sunday! WHOOSH...that was the sound of the last week. That was the sound of it rushing past without even a momentary pause to catch a breath. And here we stand on the brink of a new week, another day...better take a breath, this might be your only chance.
It is gray and heavy outside. The threat of rain lingers in scent and feel. All is wet and waking all around. Spring is just around the corner and I can see it in nature, and feel it in my heart. Just today E. asked when we could go swimming. And she was all serious about it too! Within children is that innocence of all being new. Do you remember that? When everything was a curiosity and thousands of questions rolled off your tongue?
So hats off to spring. Soon we will be digging in fresh dirt, tugging weeds and singing to the flowers!!! Heres to sunshine and barefoot days...butterflies, birds and all. Here is to rainy, gray days with popcorn and movies and babies snuggled all around.
Mmmm, isn't life delicious. It sure is a Sunday.
