OH this morning was one of those days I so look forward to as it had in it the first real smells of spring in the air. Many people have a favorite time of the year and for me it's the start of EVERY SEASON with spring and fall being my favorite. I know many people just have one time of the year that is their all time favorite but for me it's the start of each and every season. Being in Oklahoma means we do at least get the start of a new season unlike other areas of the US where the weather is the same most of the time or they really only have about 3 seasons as one is really short.
Spring in Oklahoma isn't like other areas of the US as we don't really have "cool days" . We get a few cool days and rain shower but here spring is mostly HOT ONE DAY and BACK TO THE 40's or 50"s the next. So today when I woke up and could open the windows at 8:30 in the morning and smell the fresh slightly cool with a promise of warm air I was in heaven!! By three this afternoon though we have the air conditioner on--lol!!
There is something about the renewal of all things dead in spring that makes you just want to be closer to God. As things bloom and blossom I'm reminded that God and His promises are new every morning and no matter how dark and dried up life can seem at times renewal does come!!
Tomorrow is suppose to be another great day and we are spending it at the zoo to help celebrate the life of a dear friend of the boys and gift he is to his family (HAPPY BIRTHDAY EARLY RYAN!!!) and we are looking forward to the warmth and sunshine. Next week looks like the clouds and cold can return but not for long as spring is itching to stay around and we look forward to it!!
