I hear you @walkerland! With the arctic vortex on us right now, I too, am longing for spring!
It's amazing how much excitement those first green sprouts coming up in spring can create, then winter is soon forgotten as everything springs to life!
I love the birds returning and in the neighborhood everyone is getting out for their walks and greeting everyone instead of hibernating in their homes. It's so much easier on our pets too when they can get out and romp around.
Thanks for this lovely spring article it does warm the heart!
