It's the little things

I must say that I have been in that winter depression the last month or so, and was lifted out of it a bit by one little thing I found in the chicken coop! My first egg since November! This tells me that spring isn't to far away.
Last night for our Young Women activity we planted little flower pots full of dirt and grass seed. We wanted our own little patch of spring. I can't believe how wonderful the smell of dirt can be. Nice moist good soil in the hands and the scent of it in the air was such a powerful thing. Brought me out a little bit more. After going through one of the hardest winters in Iowa, we are all ready for it to be over!

I've been doing some spring cleaning in the house, can't believe how dirty some things can get, put out some of my spring flower decorations, and I'm feeling pretty good. Okay can't blog any more. I have a date with the black top!!!
