When I walked outside today and felt warmth, my heart was instantly happy. It’s a balmy 75 degrees today and I.LOVE.IT!! This is my ideal temp. I love being able to walk around in flip flops and head out the door without thought of a jacket. I love not being at all chilly. So of course when I picked the kids up from tutorial today, I brought my trusty ball cap because I knew we’d be staying after for football, and flower picking, chatting with friends, and the latest development in after school play time….
When my son was 3, I took him strawberry picking for the first time. It was a special Mommy/Son date prior to the birth of our third child.
The next year, we returned, but this time it was a family affair.
2009 brought us back to the same farm, this time with friends.
And 2010 found me once again at the fields pregnant, with many small children in tow.
Without having to pay thousands of dollars to fly to the Caribbean for a few days, we in the Maryland area were blessed with a week of spring weather in February. And the Circus kids and I soaked up every precious minute of it. I had my kids outside as much as possible this week. Biking, Swinging, Picnicking, digging, and wading…
Rumor has it snow could fall here next week.
