happier times

"Can we speak in flowers? It will be easier for me to understand..."

-Nayyirah Waheed

Spring, flowers, and warm weather are my love language. I know I'm not alone in how much weather affects my mood. On warm sunny days, I feel so chipper and happy and ready to conquer anything. On cold, wintry days, I am moody and sad and snappy!



We were spoiled with an extremely warm February. We had so many beautiful 70 degree days. I was in heaven. We ventured to the park every afternoon, and I didn't feel so bogged down by my lack of sleep. On one of these unseasonably warm days, we went to the "dragon park" (the boys have their own names for every park. ie: mulch park, castle park, blue park, etc). I wore one of my favorite dresses, snapped away with my camera, and we enjoyed a little picnic dinner!



As I'm writing this, it is March, 30 degrees, and the wind will knock you down! I've been in a bad mood, refusing to take off my pajamas, with a knot in my pony tail the size of Texas, all day. I know that spring will come back eventually. But for now, I will just have to stare at these pictures and dream of happier times!
