I have to confess. I changed all of the calendars in the house to April two days ago. I've been feeling a bit like Toad this past week. The calendar above, was designed by Renee. It just looked good to be looking at April, even if it wasn't quite time yet.
March here has been a bit chilly and rainy for my taste. The whole month, I have been thinking to myself "last year I 'know' we were at the beach by now" and "last year we were doing homework outside on a blanket spread in the back yard".
One of my favorite things about keeping a blog for so long is the ability to go back and see what we were doing the same time of the year previously.
Upon checking the archives I found out I have been absolutely wrong. Last year at this time, Spring was the same this year as it was last year. A warm sunny day followed by a cold damp one. We were planting our Spring garden and watching the rain. We were doing our best to keep busy and bring a bit of the outside in.
So, I guess Spring is right on schedule after all. So, is April.
Some really good mail has been trickling in every few days. Rachel's photo arrived yesterday and made me smile from ear to ear. I placed it on the shelf in my kitchen to remind me that even dirty dishes can look beautiful in just the right light.
Happy Wednesday!

I have been overwhelmed with the response to Summer Unschooling. I am still updating the participants list, so if you don't see your name yet. You will.
