I'm writing this while I listen to birds sing, watch neighbors walk by and smell the charcoal on the grill in the back yard. The blue Coleman grill is burning down some kindling, the iron slats preheating in preparation for homemade burgers.
While I enjoy fall, I think I've always been a lover of spring. Ever since my elementary school pencil learned to draw a tulip on the edge of my notes, I've enjoyed all the green things of spring. This week has been exceptionally nice weather. Waking up to rain storms and light thunder, enjoying jackets without sweating to death in the afternoon. This is the temperate weather that I love the most. I love it when the Missouri woods get a carpet of green, before the trees bud, but the flowering dogwoods and forsythia and redbuds are explosions of white, yellow and pink. I haven't had a million things to do this week, so I've gotten to come home and enjoy the afternoon from my screen porch. It has been incredibly relaxing and highly appreciated. I am so thankful for this week and the calm moments I've had on my porch.
