Signs of the times:
- The crocuses are peaking out of the ground in all sorts of glorious colors. (I’m relying on Becca here that these are, in fact, crocuses. I’m hopeless with flowers beyond roses and tulips.)
- The sun now rises before 7:00 in the morning.
- More importantly, the sun was visible all day the past two days.
- Most importantly, the neighborhood children have begun chalking up the sidewalk.
(Sorry about the lack of blogging recently. Aside from an awesome visit from friends from Boston, we’ve just been going about our normal lives without anything terribly remarkable happening. But don’t worry – we’re off to Belgium this weekend and should return with plenty of material to write about. The last time I was in Belgium I had three waffles, three beers, and three servings of chocolate in about five hours. The mythical triple Belgian trifecta. I hope to replicate it this weekend, albeit over a longer period of time.)
