The first breath of spring...

...melts away the frost of winter. The smell of earth, and grass rejuvenates the soul. Tulips sprouting a whisper of a promise of beauty to come. While winter can be beautiful, spring is a reward worth looking forward to.

A time for a lightening of the spirit, a rebirth of the soul. As the birds find their way back, waking me every morning singing out, "Celebrate! Celebrate!" It's a universal understanding of creatures great and small as the weighted blanket of winter is lifted off of our shoulders.

I am so grateful to be a part of mother natures greatest makeovers.
