Spring Is Springing

As much as I enjoyed winter this year,

I do think that spring is coming. Very soon too.
The past few days have been rainy, foggy, and just plain dreary in Iowa.

Instead of snow, it rains.
Much of the snow that we did have has been melting due to the rain and the much anticipated warmer weather.
Now it makes for a big, muddy mess in some places.

It also makes for lots of concern of potential flooding. With rain and lots of melting snow, the rivers can only handle so much.
But, it's the changing of the seasons.

I am so thankful that God decided that Iowa would be a state that experienced the four seasons in their entirety.

With spring comes many new and wonderful things.

It's also a sign of new life. A new beginning. A fresh start.

Enjoy each day that God gives you to the fullest.
