dear spring, please come soon!

the birds are chirping. the rain has come. i see a little crocus shooting out of the ground. all signs of spring. i really need you to come early this year. the girls and i are getting tired of searching for things to do inside. we can't wait to play at the playground and take some hikes by the water. not to mention another hour of daylight. that is going to rock! anyway, i'll make you a big cake with cream cheese frosting and put lots of candles in it for you if you bless us with your presence sooner than later. pretty please!!
