Ahhh….

We’re getting a preview of spring today…sunny skies and warmer temperatures. The sliding glass door is wide open in our condo, and my morning activities will certainly ensure that we will have another snowstorm in Chicago. I scrubbed the salt from our boots, shook the rugs outside and washed the floors (not too big of a feat – our apartment is small) and put away the flannel sheets. Jack hit the zoo with Maria and soaked in the rays of sunshine and breathed the fresh air.

Jossie and I went for a long walk this afternoon. I pulled her shade back and let her get a healthy dose of Vitamin D. It was good for our minds and spirits to just walk and walk. We stopped by a Starbucks, and one man exclaimed, “a new baby!” I just smiled. If my two-month-old looks like a new baby then that gives me more time to lose the baby weight!
