MARCH... Oh How I've Waited

I cannot tell you how happy I am that March is finally here.... I've always loved this month, maybe because it's that light you see at the end of the tunnel... this tunnel being Winter of course. For whatever reason February is such a hard month for me, it takes forever which is funny because it is the shortest month of the year, but it just always feels that way to me. But then beautiful March comes, and with it brings hope that Spring is on the way... now I don't get lost in the fact that just because the calendar says that it is officially spring that we will see no more snow, but its just the fact that all around you start to see signs. I was telling Elle how when the leaves start coming back on the trees and the mountain begins to look green that you know spring is here, and then she knows that after Spring comes Summer : ) So every time we are in the car she is my lookout gal. She loves summer - I'm not sure of any kid who doesn't-, but I told her spring and fall are my favorites by far.... Our March started with the temp in the upper 40's and the sun shining so it was a huge breath of fresh air to go outside and be a part of it. The weather man says a change is in store but if all that means is that rain is coming I will take it!! I love the rain, especially in spring.... so I will continue to go on and wait until spring makes herself known and then go from there... but like I said its that light at the end of the tunnel that gets me so excited!!
On a side note, if you have not checked out this womans blog you must go there ASAP.... just Google Nellas Birth Story and a blog called Enjoying the Small Things should be one of your options... of course you must read the story of Nellas birth first, and after that it will be one of your favorite blogs to read. This woman has a way with words, she just draws you in with every post, on top of that she has beautiful pictures, I hope to get a camera like hers some day, where the colors and picture are just amazing, and you don't have to be a professional!! Nella is her newborn daughter, born at the end of January, and born with Down Syndrome, to the surprise of her family. Her story of her feelings before, during, and after her delivery are just so similar to how I felt with the birth of Jack that it is crazy. Maybe I will need to post my story some day, but for now just go read hers, whether you have a child with special needs or not you will love this story....
I guess that is it, we were lucky enough to have March 2nd be another beautiful day so I will be off to enjoy it!!
