wednesday
was warm
so i grabbed my sweet friend diana
and
took her to the zoo
most of the animals were still inside
but
the flamingos entertained us
then i took her to one of my favorite new places to walk
most of the trails
were still snow covered
and
our feet got wet and muddy
but
at this time of year
mud doesn't bother me
~much~
the birds
filled the trees with song
and
didn't seem to mind at all that we stopped to listen
the brilliantly green watercress
danced on the riverbeds
for us
while the snow in the background reminded us
that technically
spring doesn't begin until sunday
shhhh
don't tell mother nature she gave us a gift by letting spring visit early
~she might take it back~

happy weekend
