The First Day Of Spring




It's hard to believe that today is the first day of spring. School has been cancelled due to icy road conditions, and the temperature outside is very chilling.The only thing that lets you know that spring is actually here is the change in the angle of the sun as it shines through the windows.

No growth outside yet, but here are some tulips from last year, to brighten up your day.
