Weather. Just like . . . life?

One minute I am complaining and crying that winter will last until . . . forever.

Then, suddenly, it’s near 70 – kids are running around outside, and wearing shorts, and . . . running around outside some more.

It’s just like life, isn’t it. Just when you think things can’t get any worse, they do.

Oh. Oops. Wait. No. That was not what I meant to say. That is not what it is like. Let’s see: winter never ending . . . suddenly it’s spring . . .

Oh! Yes. Just like life – just when everything seems dreary, impossible and hopeless; suddenly – spring!

Enough. I’m pretending. No metaphor-like thoughts are floating through my head at all. I just wanted to post some cute pictures of Goldie climbing our fence and playing on our swing-set yesterday.

This was the real depth of my thoughts: We had several perfectly perfect days this week. They won’t stay. Not yet. But while they were here, everyone – excited by the novelty of warm weather -- spent every possible moment of every day outside.

That was it.

And then I had some pictures. IMG_5019_edited-1

I don’t know a thing about comparing life to weather.

I was just being fancy.

Now. More of Goldie enjoying a spring day:IMG_5051_edited-1IMG_5028_edited-1IMG_5034_edited-1IMG_5077_edited-1IMG_5053_edited-1

So glad you finally got some lovely weather! We just spent a week on the beach in fort Morgan Al. What do you think of that? It was much colder than it should have been but still very fun and lovely.

Ha! I love that you admitted that you just wanted to post some cute pictures, and that's it. The blog world could use some more of that kind of honesty. :D

Heehee. Thanks, Andrea. I was just rambling trying to think of some way to post those pics . . . then I was like, "For crying out loud. Stop. Just post the pictures already!" :)

Ah Nancy, there is beauty all around you! :)

I adore that Goldums and am happy to see sweet pictures of her. She is getting so grown-up! It makes me sad to think that it was like one day ago that I came to visit you in the hospital after you had her. Your blog always makes me smile.
