The signs of Spring

Each year and ESPECIALLY this year I look forward to seeing our trees starting budding and producing the vibrant Easter colors that don't seem to ever last long enough. A co-worker today summed up what its like living here. "Living in Washington is like having a Gorgeous Super Model for a girlfriend, but her always being sick!"I seem to also be noticing other "signs" of spring in my life including work, family, church and in the conversations that I have cherished lately with those who have taken the time to be part of my life.
