“Mom! Did you hear that it’s supposed to be like 45 degrees next week?! That’s almost swimming weather, right?” – Liam, age 9
Every March, I am pretty sure that I have never been SO ready for winter to be over. This year is no different. The cold temperatures have left me trapped in the house with my face pressed against the window, longing to enjoy the sunshine without freezing my face off.
I cannot wait for spring weather and everything that comes with it. So, in an effort to mope less, and wait excitedly for spring, I have decided to take a look at all of the things I am looking forward to!
Dear Spring, I need you because….

I will lose approximately 10 pounds, just by not having to wear sweaters and boots every day!
Bonfires aren’t just for summer at my house. As long as there isn’t snow on the ground, we like to enjoy a warm fire by the pond.
