Change of Seasons

Well, I think I'm about ready for Spring. I have always been a fall and winter lover. I love the cold air, snow (if we get any), and the coziness and comfort of a wood burning fire in the fireplace. However, I have come to realize that the hopes for snow are slowly going away. Living in east Tennessee does not do much for the hope of snow. Realizing that, I believe I am now ready for the "all go" for Spring.
The changing of the seasons has always fascinated me. It truly helps me to see the amazement and power of our creator God. The ways in which the trees turn from looking completely dead to alive. The grass turning from a brown to green color. And the ways in which the birds and animals realize that it is time to come out of their winter hibernation and begin their spring and summer living. Only God can create such mystery and wonderment. And I give thanks that I am able to experience such a world that we have.
Spring also brings one of my favorite foods back into existence that disappears during the cold months: ICE CREAM! So, I must now end this blog entry to go enjoy some sweet ice cream on this early Spring day.
