Can Spring be far behind?
I went for a walk with my little grandson Tuesday afternoon and was excited to be able to point out undeniable evidence that spring is coming. There it was – a tiny little purple and yellow flower amidst the dried up leaves and twigs in the mulch of a neighbor’s landscaping. We bent down and inspected it and he said it looked like a butterfly. I suppose it did.
When we resumed our walk, he looked up at the cloudless blue sky and said, “What a beautiful day!”
No question about it.
My family is anxiously awaiting the arrival of another new life this week — my son’s first child, Amelia Elizabeth. The doctors have said that if she isn’t here by Monday, they will induce labor. I look forward to sharing a picture of her next week!
It’s that time again
Daylight Savings Time returns this weekend. Don’t forget to set your clocks forward Saturday night before you go to bed, or else you’ll miss the Sunday run — which is the trail cleanup, beginning at the high school — on the corner of Dry Mill Rd. and Catoctin Circle in Leesburg.
I’ll be there — unless Amelia has made her entrance, or the drops on the weather map turn out to be a deluge (which it looks like could happen on Saturday).
