The snow is melting

Spring is coming...the snow is melting.
The highs should be in the 50-60's this week which is a welcome sign from the negative and below freezing temps we've seen lately. It's hard to believe that in about a month we will be in the fields planting corn and soybeans. The little boys have enjoyed the snow this year but they are ready to play in the water hose and their sandbox. I'm ready to leave the jackets at home.

We have a little down time between meetings for getting prepped and ready for spring planting. I've  used these past 2 weeks snowed in for nesting since C3 will be here in 11 weeks give or take some days. Lots of changes coming along in the next few months. The older brothers will be 3 and 5 in May and both are excited to have a baby brother after their birthdays. I just hope little brother does wait til the older boys have their birthdays.

It's hard to believe we just had "spring forward" with snow on the ground but hopefully it's the last snow we see 'til the end of the year. C2 noticed the time change when we were eating supper and it was still light. He thought we had an early supper when really it was 7 the new time 'cause I just couldn't get it ready any earlier.

Warmer days are coming and I think everyone is ready. I'm not sure why anyone would like winter other than it makes you appreciate summer. This year the little boys and I have seen more snow than we've ever seen and I'd be fine if we didn't get dumped with a foot plus of snow every 15 years.
