Ok, so that's not how the phrase goes but for those of us who live in the Midwest, Michigan for me, we have had an incredible weather breaking March. I can't remember a time in my life when it was over 85 degrees in March and we had a full week of those temperature to bask in. Snow and ice are the norms for this time of year but instead we had to turn the heat off, open the windows and let in the warmth, it really was incredible.
However, this March Madness has lead to the most beautiful sights, everything is in full bloom including the fruit tress! Daffodils, hyacinths, cherry trees, fruit trees, you name it, it's blooming. Now those of you who know anything about blooms and cold weather know that that two don't mix and it's not a good thing. Our fruit farmers need all the prayers you can send up so their crops will be spared from a hard frost and that the blooms will survive. That way we will have fruit this fall and they will be able to put food on their table too! Come this fall we want to see the trees looking like this photo on the right. Oh, and while your at it, don't forget about our grape vineyards that provide those luscious grapes that make our wonderful Michigan wines!
April Gladness!!! For our family that means our daughter and her family move home from Korea!!!!! I'm doing the happy dance, that's cause I can't sing. In just a few short days they will all be home back in the good 'ole USA! I can't wait to have them within driving distance!!!! Kentucky is a hop skip and a jump away after being stationed in Korea. It has been 2 long years without them I can't wait get those much needed and missed hugs and kisses from grandkids. So, while your praying for those fruit crops please include them in your prayers for safe travel next week. It is a long flight for a family of 5 and 3 little critters! It's going to be a grand Easter celebration this year for sure!!!
And last but not least, Happy Birthday Momma! I sure do miss you and hope your having a wonderful birthday in Heaven. May the angels carry up a armful of kisses and hugs from me! And remember....I love you a bushel and a peck and all the way to heaven!
