Spring

It's officially spring! At least for 3 days temperatures have obliged us with a bit of spring. (We won't talk about the forecast for next week.) The children and I took advantage of Rita's First Day of Spring ice giveaway. That was a fun outing. The wind was a bit chilly, but everyone did great standing in the long line.

I'm ignoring the fact that wet sand and mud are constantly being drug in the house. I'm just happy that the outdoors is calling the kiddos names. It is so much easier to get some basic housework done when they are all outside! Today I even scrubbed the stairs....a job that has desperately needed to be done for a very long time. Even getting one of those long forgotten jobs done makes me feel good, although there are about a million more that are staring at me every day.
