First Day of Spring

Happy First Day of Spring. Extremely happy that Winter is over. Easter is this Sunday. I am looking forward to giving my kids gifts- for no good reason, but I went a bit overboard this year. I have bought them some books, a craft kit and a fairy garden- I like to give them something that grows. On a side tangent- when my little turned 3 her friend gave her a plant for her birthday and now months later she looks and it and see that it is still there- it isn't like a toy that gets old or broken. Anyway, I love the idea of giving something real that is alive.

Easter means family over for brunch. This year it is more like an early dinner. I really do love to cook. The menu is steamed mussels, rotisserie pork loin, rosemary yukon potatoes, asparagus, salad and dessert of pound cake topped with whipped cream and berries. I hope it all turns out well.

The little one is on antibiotics- first time ever. She is slowly getting over her sinus infection that was causing the very bad cough. She slept through the night last night- first time in about two weeks. She has lost a little weight- due to not being interested in food, but not too bad. She is tall and tiny and too much weight loss is not good for her.

School auction- yes this weekend is also the preschool auction fund raiser. I am happy to report that I will not be bidding on any items, but I have been helping out. I so do want to be an interior designer and event planner in my next life. Anyway, Saturday night is the event and I will be running the sound and videos. I'll report next week how it goes.

May the glory and the promise of this joyous time of year
Bring peace and happiness to you and those you hold most dear.
