Springtime Makes Me Smile.....



I feel very blessed to live in Florida.   I love that our warm weather begins earlier than the rest of the country and that everything begins blooming in early spring.    The warmth of the sun on my shoulders when I'm outside energizes me!

Every sense comes alive during this season.   The smell of freshly mowed grass....flowers blooming....someone starting a grill... Confederate jasmine...sunscreen.    The sounds of children playing outside or splashing in the pool, birds singing sweetly.  The sight of early morning sunshine coming in the window and the herbs and flowers thriving in the perfect weather.    The taste of fresh corn and tomatoes and strawberries from the farmers market.  


I know there are hot and humid days around the corner and there will be pollen on the cars and we will have summer thunderstorms....but I still can't imagine living anyplace better.
