Welcome Springtime!

Today was such a beautiful day.  With a high of 66, it was actually nice to be outside.  In fact, it was way to nice to not be outside.  Spring has always been my favorite holiday.  I love nature and everything coming to life after a long winter.  The breeze was crisp and the sun was bright.

It was time to introduce our perfect October baby to the outdoors.  The poor girl has, until today, only really known a life of cold and snow.  Today, we met my sister, brother-in-law, and nephew for a walk around the Mishawaka Riverwalk.

Afterwards, I put Anne in my Snugli and we walked to the park down the street from our house.

 We went swinging.  I loved watching the awe and wonder in her face as her experienced the wind blowing in her face.  It was a sensation that she had never experienced before.  We have a swing at home, but this was different.  This was wind blowing in your face, leaning over and seeing the ground different.  My sweet October baby had never seen grass or rocks before or seen trees not covered in snow.

"To the choirmaster. A Psalm of David. The heavens declare the glory of God, and the sky above proclaims his handiwork."

Psalm 19:1 ESV

I pray that I continue to be awed by God's beautiful creation and love it like I'm seeing it for the first time.
