Happiness is...a springish list.

Here are just a few of the things that have made me happy and kept me busy this past week or so...

• key lime cake
• flowers in surprising places
• dyeing Easter eggs
• this book (exquisitely charming!)
• 
• the news of newly arrived babies and babies soon to arrive 
• getting a pedicure
• the sound of toe shoes on a stage
• this movie
• and this book(sweetly imaginative and poetic)
• 
• spring cleaning
• long talks with old friends
• opportunities to start over
• this song (sometimes you just need to sing 'the blues'!)

• writing poems*
• planning road trips
• eating Peeps!

How have you been spending your Spring?

*for those who were curious...

Truth
strength comes in tiny packages,
in little morsels over time
often unrecognized
at the moment of delivery~
like fragile strands of twine,
mere breakable bits of string on their own
yet wound together
you find yourself bound
for greatness
