Color me SPRING

One of my favorite seasons is spring.  I love watching the trees and flowers come to life after a long COLD winter.  Of course, along comes with spring the allergens that effect so many of us.  I am just grateful for the medicines that have been developed to help with that. 

I remember when my oldest child Lori, was growing up, she couldn't go outside

as her allergies were so bad.  Each spring we would go to Missouri and visit my parents on the farm. My other children four would run and play outside, but Lori had to stay inside and read.  And when someone mowed the lawn she was miserable.  She was a good sport about it, and would try to do activities with us, like floating the river which was an annual event.  I think we all loved that. 

In addition to the pollen, all sorts of bugs, snakes and other creatures come out of hibernation.  Even with all of that going on, I look forward to the warm days and the cooler evenings of spring, to the rebirth and renewal of the earth.  It's Spring......Let's REJOICE!!!
