A forecast of summer weather so early in the spring seems out of place since frost just paid us a visit a few nights ago. The landscape is bursting with shades of green as wild onions and wire grass engage their respective genetic propensity on the ground. Mid-morning air, less humid than frank summer temperatures, already seems to beg for a breeze to move it along. A shady place will surely be welcomed by birds and mammals as the afternoon temperature is expected to climb in the higher double digits. Warmth without humidity is a welcomed occurrence to this PD host who sometimes finds maneuvering through cold weather more challenging than not. Thoughts of gratitude well up inside as childhood memories of springtime emerge. The childhood memories of freedom from the restraints of heavy clothing and clunky shoes shed in the warmth of summer flood this thankful heart. Gratitude is the sunshine in which a thankful heart basks and absorbs the memories of a life so filled with love. May your day be bright with that gratitude that illuminates the blessings that surround like the grains of sand beside the stream.
