We have a "spring fever" going around in our home! Ayanna was ill for a few days and now it seems to be Josiah's turn.
One morning she asked for her blanket and baby and next time I took a look she has fallen asleep on the couch. This has never happened before, she really needed her rest.
It was cozy! I worked on a new blanket, a gift for another baby, while listening to a classical music station. Ayanna sleeping next to me. It reminded me somehow of times when I was young and staying at my grandparent's house. They would take an afternoon nap, the classical music was always playing and my grandmother had just taught me how to crochet, I made a blanket for a doll. The same peaceful feeling was there this afternoon.
It is spring, the tulips are amazing...
my little herb seeds are growing just fine...but then one morning this week...
...We wake up to SNOW! YES...SNOW!! I thought Josiah was joking, but he was not. Wet snow, the end of april. I rushed in my pots of planted seeds, that had just found there way outside (for sunlight!)
Then it was blue skies and sun again later that day. Still very cold, so we stayed inside
Ayanna spotted the moon, while laying on the couch. She was so excited! "Moon, mama, moon, moon, mama look!"
I spotted this beautiful red bird (can anyone tell me what it is?) from our kitchen window and got really excited as well; "Look Ayanna, red bird, look!!"
So we had some sick days, but they were sweet and made it possible for me to get some things done around the house. My parents are arriving in less than two weeks...
We look SO forward to the weeks they will be here!
