Tuesday, Tuesday

It's March 21st .... is today the first day of spring? I gotta go check ... hang on.

Evidently, yesterday ... Monday, March 20th was the FIRST day of spring. Okay, so I hit the SECOND day of spring! Can't hit 'em all, huh?

I'm sitting in the living room of our pied-a-terre, taking a quick break from work. There is a plump brown sparrow who has landed on an old, dried-up grapevine from last year. He/she is looking at the window. Ahh, fly away, little sparrow. Spring has arrived. Find some food, make some babies, make a nest. It is wonderful to hear the sounds of birds again. Truly a rite of spring.

For whatever reason, I'm feeling hopeful today. Thank you, God. Hopefulness is a wonderful thing!
