Well, the March wind has finally arrived! Late, but it's here. With it the need to be outside...Spring is my favorite season. It's a time of renewal, when the world wakes up from it's long winter nap. One of my favorite parts is the flowers, the wild riot of colors spread as far as the eye can see. The vibrant green of new grass, the many shades of pinks, blues, purples....My other favorite part is kite flying with my kids. Every spring we buy new kites (the little plastic ones...) and we spend the day outside trying to get them up and flying. Some times we succeed and others they never get air time, but it's always a good time. I love to hear my kids laughing, that happens to be my favorite sound in the whole world.

Ah...just wonderful....except the tornados. I live in a section of the USA that is prone to high activity where twisters are concerned, especially for this time of year.

But even with the storms, I still love spring.
