spring

Last night I went for a walk with Dulce.  I usually do but this night was different.  There was a full moon to light our path and it was a little warmer.  Usually as soon as the sun goes down it is quite chilly.  The air was still for a change.  The air smelled of spring.  Several neighbors have been aerating their lawns and planting new seed so it smelled of earth and of grass how it usually smells after a light rain.  Wisconsin is finally waking up.
I am anxiously waiting for the bulbs that I planted to grow.  I saved Daffodil bulbs that Harmony gave me last year and had put them in the freezer for their winter freeze. I need to see flowers!  I miss the forsythia bushes on Andrew's campus in the spring.  Soon and very soon they will arise.
My mom reminded me of one of my pappy's sayings.  He was always making up something silly.  Literature majors forgive the grammar for my pappy. 
 
                                  Spring is here,
                                  the grass is ris,
                                  I wonder where the flowers is.
Happy Good friday and Happy Easter to all of you.  May the grace of God and the Joy of His Salvation bless you this day.

I miss you! I had another wonderful dream last night about seeing you. You and Katie and Lindsey and Jodi were all crammed into a corner booth, and I couldn't stop the tears from flowing as I fell in your and Katie's waiting arms. Sigh.
