Warm...well, warmer!

My freshman year of college I remember thinking that my Hawaiian roommate was crazy for sunbathing in March. Today, as I spread out a blanket on the dead, damp grass, I thought of her, and I think I know how she felt now. I have missed the sun. I miss outside. I can't wait to put my kids in the stroller and go for a walk. I can't wait for spring!

Jonah tastes a twig.

Jonah feels the grass for the first time.

Venna rides her bike (pretends it's a horse) and talks to me like I'm Prince Ali.

I'm jealous that you can see your grass! Mine is still under a foot of snow.

Hey! I remember very vividly pretending that our bikes were horses. I think we named them "Rain" and "Lightning," or some other awesome names like those. -Meili
