Friday was gorgeous. So we busted out our flip-flops and a sack lunch and headed to the park for a picnic. I actually had to put a little sunscreen on the kids before we went out. As I rubbed the sticky stuff on my little toe heads the promise of warmth had even me jumping around with excitement. The kids had a great time out in the sunshine, and I loved sitting on the bench soaking in the first warming rays of sunlight.
Today I am feeling like mother nature pulled a fast one on me. I guess I should be use to Utah spring by now, after all I have lived here most of my life. Still every year with the first sign of spring I am ready to pack up the winter boots and bulky coats and trade them in for flip-flops and Capri's. It never lasts long enough for me, I am always waiting for spring to come and stay a while... in Utah it never seems to. I always feel like we run strait from a too cold winter into a too hot summer.
Kids are more flexible, they just roll with it. So on Monday as I went in to mourning, they looked out their window to see a winter wonderland. And as children do, they happily pulled on their boots for one last jaunt in the white stuff.
