I had an amazing experience today. I heard a couple of birds practicing their springs songs. It was warm, the sun was shining and this little male finch was just singing his heart out. It was amazing. I look forward to this transitional time of year when winter is slowly but surely losing its icy grip to the warm days of spring. It is a sort of in between time of year when spring isn't fully here and winter isn't either. I love it.

I realize too that as much as I dislike the coldness and deadness of winter it is a preparation for the regrowth of the world. The longer that I have to wait for the coming of the new season the greater my joy at the new birth of the world.

I know that I am waxing a bit smarmy, but, then again, that seems to happen to me at this time of year too.

Change of subject...went to see Music and Lyrics and I liked it. A fun date movie.

I am still working on my relationship with God through Jesus Christ. I believe that this will be a life long process. I don't know if I should be glad about it or scared out of my wits. Fortunately, He has a lot of grace and more patience with me.

More later.

Dad,
I know how you feel about this time of year. I heard a bird sing this morning and it was beautiful.
I love you!
