March

These photos were taken in the same week. On Monday, we had a snow day due to the several inches of snow that got dumped on the house throughout the course of the day. By Saturday, the grass was starting to green up and it was warm enough to go barefoot in the park. That's early spring in Pennsylvania for you!

Enjoying the afternoon at the park brought to mind one of my favorite Reliant K songs, In Like A Lion:
And everything it changed overnight
This dying world You brought it back to life
And deep inside I felt things
Shifting everything was melting
Away oh away
And You gave us the most beautiful of days

It's not that I don't know how blessed I am in the winter months. But the return of spring brings a lightness back to my heart I didn't know I was missing. If you ask me, I will probably tell you that spring is my least favorite season, and it is. But there's still magic in the warm, damp breeze.
'Course, it's Pennsylvania. So don't discount a return to ice and snow by next week!
