1. Yesterday at 4pm I noticed that the sun coming in the back of the house was streaming in at a spring/summer-angle. There's a noticeable change in the slant of the light during the afternoons in the warmer months and yesterday was the first day we felt it while getting dinner ready. Daylight savings will mess with that for a few weeks in late March, but by April I should be squinting due to piercing sunlight again. Hurray for that.
2. Christopher noticed the first spring robin today. We were bidding a lovely new babysitter adieu and he exclaimed, "Look! There's a robin!" Sure enough, there was a fat, little robin perched on one of our front shrubs. We will only see more as the days go by. Yippee!
3. My brother and his lovely fiancee created the most darling little girl who was welcomed to the world this past weekend. We can't stop thinking about the three of them and can't wait to meet her in person. It's so exciting to have my brother cross over to the other side that is Parenthood. This is the good stuff, people.
