I think I have about had it with this winter.

First, lots of snow

then, lots of smog and fog

now, subzero temperatures.

All while battling morning sickness and pregnancy fatigue.

I think that bears have the right idea, go to sleep during the pretty colors of autumn, and wake up the first part of spring, skip winter altogether!

As I was sitting at my kitchen table writing blog posts and skimming through pictures on my computer I came across some pictures I took this past spring and summer.  It was like a breath of promise and hope…this winter will not last forever!  Not only will there be green, and colors and my vegetable garden again, there will be a new baby, there are so many wonderful things to look forward to this year, so no more gloom for me, only looking forward.

I thought I would share some of my nuggets of hope.
