I can’t believe it. Another Mother’s Day is around the corner, and it seems like yesterday that I was getting to celebrate it for the first time as a new Mum. Now, here we are again and I am on the verge of becoming a mother of 2!! So crazy how much can change in a year!
Well, according to my calendar, it is officially Spring! The snow is melting, the little green buds are starting to pop through the sad, ravaged-by-winter gardens, and the sun is certainly starting to poke out from behind the gray clouds of winter. Albeit there is still a biting wind that doesn’t let you forget that we are hardly out of the winter woods yet, but I will take it! There is nothing like a little sunshine to give you a new lease on life. We can only hope that we’ve seen the end of the snow, once and for all! Forgive me all you spring skiers out there… 
We are now well in to the second week of February and it is right about now that winter really seems to feel endless. With the Christmas rush long gone, and the post-New Year’s glow so last month, February really seems to be the time when everyone has had it with winter. Enough with the snowstorms, the minus-20 (without windchill) unbearable cold, the days where the sun doesn’t really appear till 8 AM, only to vanish again so quickly at 4:30, and wrestling my wiggling son in and out of his puffy, one-piece snowsuit 3 times a day! Enough already! It’s depressing, and I’ve had it!
