Why I Love Spring {and a mini love story}

It brings warm rain and flowers. But it also brings love.

Brian and I met in the spring. Well, we met face-to-face in the spring. It was March 2002, several months after we started talking online. This led to years of dating and a spring proposal in 2004… and then a spring wedding in 2006. In fact, our 5 year wedding anniversary is coming up next week!

We also moved into this house during the spring.

Last year, spring was when we found out we were pregnant and announced it to the family. It was when Brian gave me my first Mother’s Day card. Boy, how he made me cry (with happiness)!

Now this spring, I need to look through Father’s Day Cards. I didn’t get him one last year, so I really need to make this first one special! Oh! And since June is right around the corner, we need to get a whole bunch of birthday cards. Several of my in-laws have birthdays in the beginning of June.

Ah, spring. I do love it and how it blossomed our dating like-love into true love… companionship… and a family. And as much as I love spring I still must ask:

Is it summer yet?
