Well after a beautiful weekend of sunshine and mud! The snow has returned. I promise I will have pictures soon. We had been having so much fun playing in the melting snow/water/mud and now our world is white again.
I want to have a very positive attitude - go with the flow - but after having a boy with an ear infection for the last few days and almost getting stuck on my way to school this morning (they hadn't cleared the streets yet when I got to town) I have to say I am feeling pretty humbug!
So here is my effort to make myself cheer-up
Top 10 reasons I love spring in central ND
10. only in ND does it seem appropriate to give a hat and mittens as an Easter gift
9. baby calves
8. at least if you get stuck in the snow/mud its not too cold to walk for help
7. I don't have to worry about the red river flooding my house - just the slough out back.
6. only 30 days of Kindergarten left
5. There is still a chance of another snow day off from school
4. I heard the geese are comming back...I've even seen a few!
3. planning my garden (the three ft. of snow on my garden will be gone before we know it, right?...right?)
2. unlike the area where we go antelope hunting we did not get 22.3 in. of snow yesterday - we only got about 8 in.
and the number one reason is...
1. faith means believing without seeing - I know that soon the sun will shine and summer will come even if it doesn't feel or look like it right now!

You forgot about the stars you can see at night. You can't see those everywhere. This winter has got to be over soon, and when it is we'll have it as an example to say "well at least it's not like that winter of 2008-2009." :)
