WARNING!

(second day in a row: picture above has nothing to do with story below, but it is happy and it was a kind of warm day, so maybe spring....)


It is a beautiful day in the neighborhood. The temperature has already reached seventy degrees.

I'm warning everyone of the following:

Daughter already has on a spaghetti-strapped tie-dyed dress.

I will be orchestrating outdoor lunch.

We may be building a kite.

I'm going to walmart later - i may buy a spring 'item' or two.

Ada is now dancing through the house singing "spring is almost here"

Eason has formed a chorus of just saying "spring" every few seconds because he cannot keep up with her made-up-off-the-top-of-her-head lyrics.

I need to find easter outfits for the children!

I need to find an easter outfit for me!

We may build kites, just sayin'

Or buy one dollar kites at wal mart!?!

We're cooking out at the cabin tonight! There may be photographs taken of the whole family looking outdoorsy and springy and happy. Very little of it will have to be staged. Because why? we are definitely happy, springy even if it's not quite time, and have an outdoorsy vein in there somewhere that needs honoring.

Spring! Woohooooooooooo! says ada brooks.


Wooohoooo! say I back.

Can we watch just one pink panther before school? says Eason.
