You need to deal with allergies. Just kidding.
There is newness. God’s grace is abundant.
Wake up! Rise and Shine! Smell the newness :)

-the color green is still included in the visible light spectrum; it didn’t melt away with the snow
-the Spring (ha ha ha) of Living Water brings life

…it’s time to blossom.
That the dead of winter doesnt hang around forever.
Literally and figuratively. ;o)
it also tells me its safe to open my windows again. sadly though, spring is still at least 6 weeks away here. We are only just now starting to thaw out of our feet of snow. At least the driveway is finally clear! ;o)
@gritandglory says:
oh. my. dang.
@pa3cia says:
spring is nature’s way of saying… things weren’t dead… they were just hidden from you for a season.
spring is nature’s way of also saying… it’s time to buy some kleenex and claritin. =P
@Nomadstacey says:
Hmm..love the first thought. ‘Things were just hidden from you for a season’. I’ll need to marinate in that for a while!
@pa3cia says:
=] thanks
• joy comes with the morning.
• time to throw the kids’ snowboots away, they can’t be salvaged.
• it’s almost flip-flop season!
• Sarah’s having a birthday.
• chocolate covered marshmallow eggs!
@gritandglory says:
when’s your birthday?!
(and dang, you know how long it’s been since i’ve had an easter basket?!)
April 8
I haven’t had a basket in years either, but I always get the marshmallow eggs. And hopefully some Jelly Bellys.
He brings life to what appears to be dead!
@kamriereed says:
enjoy the back breaking pain of planting flowers just so they can die in about 6 months.
Be thawed, and rejoice!
@gritandglory says:
“be thawed” – i love that mental picture…
Yeah- a little painful, but good. So good…
big.deep.breath.
…time to plant something new.
(deep breath)… (stretching arms out)… aaaaahhhhhhhh!!!!
… that joy comes in the morning
“My beloved spoke, and said to me: “Rise up, my love, my fair one, And come away. For lo, the winter is past, The rain is over [and] gone. The flowers appear on the earth; The time of singing has come, And the voice of the turtledove Is heard in our land.”
Song of Songs 2:10-12
ENOUGH…

You go, girl! We all need to remember this! And don’t try to battle without your armor…
shorts, flip-flops, fresh air, and fun!
Good morning!
@traceepersiko says:
time to start wearing a bra
@gritandglory says:
cheesafied!
You thought it disappeared, but it didn’t. Time to clean up all that junk that was hidden under the snow!
Up here, the first sign of spring is not beautiful. It is that the melting piles of snow reveal all that trash and junk that was hidden all winter. Spring begins first with ugly, and as we clean up all our junk we begin to see the little shoots of life we didn’t even know were there.
