I love that spring is just weeks away. I don't mind the snow or the cold, in fact, it's snowing right now and I am throughly enjoying it but there is something about spring that I love. Growing up in a family of educators summer was our safe haven, a time to breathe and be together. So naturally, when spring came every year it would make me aware of the closeness of summer and time to play and be together. This spring I am particularly excited because there are so many things coming in the next few months that make me excited. Here is a short list of things I'm thinking forward to:
2) My parents are coming to see us in April. This in itself is blog worthy. I love visits from my parents!
3) Easter. Easter is one of my favorite holidays. Thinking about it even makes me teary eyed. Realizing the sacrafice Christ made for us and dwelling upon the power that conquered hell stirs something alive inside of me.
4) Going to Belize. JD and I are helping lead a missions trip to Belize City. Every one of my missions experiences have been so different from one another (the last one not being a great experience) so I am going into this trip with great excitement and anticipation.
5) Desperation conferences. This will be my 7th summer going to conference. This conference holds a special place in my heart that I look forward to every year.
6) The smell of rain and fresh cut grass. I love these smells, it triggers so many great memories.
I will probably go into detail on some of this list in later blogs, but for now, Happy Almost Spring!
