It has been snowing here in the great state of Ohio for about a week now and as I look out my window at over a foot of snow while huge crystalline flakes relentlessly fall from the sky I wonder if this is ever going to end! Don't get me wrong, I do love the snow and watching it fall from the comfort and warmth of my own home, however when everyday occurances are hindered by it, it becomes a slight nuisance. Ava and her daddy enjoyed some time out in snow yesterday evening building snowmen and throwing snowballs. I have so many wonderful memories of my dad and me building snowmen, sled riding and cover your eyes mom - sliding on the ice in his station wagon around the neighborhood. I am thankful that Ava and Bill are forming a strong foundation of memories for her to pull from one day. The Winter can be fun, but I am SO ready for Spring!
And Spring will come bringing with it greeness and new life. Spring will come reminding us all that time continues to move on, whether or not we are ready. With death comes new life, with darkness comes the light. God is good to move us from one season to the next - both in the world we live in and in our own private lives. One of my favorite songs by Nicole Nordeman is "Every Season". Enjoy this video and take heart in knowing that whatever season you are in - a new one is coming.
Will it ever end?

I thought you would never blog again....I guess it took the snow to keep you indoors long enough.
LOL, I know. It's crazy how often I think about blogging and actually have things on my mind to blog, but I never sit down to do it! I'm really gonna try to do better :)
