And it would be meaningful

May 12th, 2008

It’s probably because winter was so dark and dreary that I’m so thrilled it’s over. No, it’s probably because it was so cold. Yes, that’s it. Cold. Or maybe it’s because it made me complain all the time. But we should all forget about that, and I’ll be really immature and illogical and act like it’ll never be back. Because spring is here! Spring! Warm! Sunny! Won’t-kill-me spring!

Yes, I know it’s nearly summer (woo! hold on, I can barely type the word without crying happy tears) and some people have been basking in 70, 80, and 90+ degree glory for a while now, but NOT ME. This time 10 days ago, it snowed. I cried the bad kind of tears that day. That day I would have been thankful for any sign of spring, any sign at all.

Yes, a dandelion would have made me happy.

But I don’t worry about that now. Now, not only do we have dandelions enough so that every mother in my neighborhood could have received a fistful yesterday, we have a whole lot more!

Flowers! Buds! And trees! Color! It’s everywhere.

Everywhere!

Mind if I keep going? I didn’t think so.

But wait! There’s more!

I know, I know. This is going to get annoying… but I can’t help myself. I love it. I do not say that lightly. I love it. So much.

So much, in fact, that I would kiss the flowers and the trees and the buds. You know what, even with the neighbors watching. Yep, I would make out with ground cover.  And like it.

That is all.
