I am so fortunate to live in the climate that experiences the four seasons. We enjoy the current season we are in but anticipate the next season approaching. I may be overemphasizing the word enjoy because when we had over a foot of snow.....I was looking for spring but it was still so far out of reach.
I feel like the world snuggles in under the covers sipping hot chocolate during the winter. Some people choose outdoor sports but in my neighborhood many just come and go from their garages. The excitement of the first snowfall wears off by March when the snow is muddy, dirty, and once again gives us hazardous road conditions.
But then.....Spring arrives! The chirping of birds. The thunderstorms. The fresh new buds on the trees and lovely spring flowers poke their heads out of the ground. People are out in the neighborhood more. Lighter jackets have replaced heavy coats and it doesn't take so long to warm up the car.
Summer is always welcoming with the trip to the beach and "no school"! Summer brings families and friends together as they vacation, grill out, walk and jog, and jumping in the lake. Peoples spirits are higher in the summer as we have longer days to enjoy. A good book to read while swinging in a hammock is my choice of summer activity.
Fall brings the end to summer but displays a beautiful masterpiece as we gaze out our windows. The color splashed on the trees are priceless. The cooler evenings around the campfire and children are buzzing back and forth to school and their activities.
I love the four seasons!
