Thank God It's April!


April has always been my favorite month of the year. It started when I was small and I could look forward to my birthday. I ALWAYS got spring clothes for my birthday and didn't even think it was a rip off. That is probably because my Mom wasn't a clothes freak and bought things regularly: Christmas, Birthday and School Clothes.

Somehow it just wasn't the same as the extensive Wish List I got from Catie today for her Spring wardrobe from Aeropostle. Andy has already informed me it's time for spring clothing and Joe and Mike went shopping tonight. I had a lot of fun growing up, but wasn't what you would call well-dressed.

Not much difference today either, I noticed as I looked through my closet. I had lots of suits and dresses, suitable for work or church, but the "Stay-At-Home Mom" outfits are sorely lacking. I need to rediscover my sense of style, since I used to think that a pair of jeans and a sweatshirt would suffice for the few hours I had at home. Maybe some spring shopping in my future?

It is time to dig up the yard, plant some pretty things and enjoy the spring weather. Now we won't mention the few snow flurries we have seen this week, but focus on the spring rain. Better days are coming.......SOON!
