Spring: A Time for New Beginnings

 The groundhog was right -- Spring has been late in coming this year. I always look for my snowdrops blooming as a sign of spring.


They usually bloom in February, and here it is the 8th of March and they are just finally thinking about blooming. Yes, the groundhog was right -- a late spring.

So spring is a time of change. We let go of winter and begin to experience a little bit of warmer weather. We go through our clothes and put the warm clothes away, bring out the lighter outfits. (Well, not just yet where I live, but it is supposed to hit 70 tomorrow, anyway...)

For my family, this spring marks a big change. We will move from the only home my son has ever known and relocate south by one state to set up residence in a new home. The lad is away at college and will not see his childhood home again. He will come "home" to a different house (but at least we're telling him where we moved to, right?).

I was going to insert photos of houses, old and new, but my technology is not cooperating so I will have to do that later. Thanks for reading.

Comments welcome for folks who have done relocating. Tell me your stories. The new house is wonderful, but like any house is not perfect. We had hoped for a main level master bedroom, but it was not meant to be.
