Post Winter

It's been a while.  Like everyone else in my circle I've been waiting to declare it post-winter.  I've been waiting to say Spring in an exclamatory way that punctuates every single day, and not just these random days where I see only glimpses.  Truth is I'm still not able to declare or exclaim it, but I can say with certainty that today I feel it because my long awaited Spring Break has started.  Here's what's been happening from February to now . . .

John-Pio learned how to gas up the car. 

Lisa, Stacey, Suzi and I went to Hueco for a long weekend.  It was so awesome.

Playground Workout

Here's to more playground time and the start of no-hat season.  Here's to pad season.  And green grass season.  Climbing outside season.  Running in a tank and shorts season.  Barbecue season.  Here's to Post-Winter! 

Last day for hats.  Kate and I dreaming of Summer!
