Glimpses of Spring

Spring is peeking it head through the clouds of winter, teasing us with sun breaks, followed by rain showers. This year is the first year that I can feel how the winter effects my mood and I am looking forward to our Spring Vacation in the Southern Cal desert.

Esther's school auction was a success. I am glad it is over. I am now on call for a birth, and am hoping it is this weekend. The car is tuned up, new tires and ready for a road trip. I am squirrelling away goodies to pull out during our trip to keep little (and big) children happy. I have a few new knitting projects started- Branching Out scarf; Cabled Hat for Caroline, though I am not thrilled with the color; and am ready to cast on for Shedir in Rowan Calmer Onyx, though am rethinking the color there, too; and ready to cast on for Jaywalkers, too, but I may wait until my LYS has Addi turbos in the size I need so that I can knit with two circulars. I have ambitious plans for our many hours in the car.

Caroline has a cold. Plus she and I are battling thrush. Sleep is still scarce, but I am getting enough to stay relatively sane. I am keeping my head down, just trying to get through these obligations in March. Looking forward to a week away with my honeys to bask in the sun, sun, sun.

Here are pictures of our little bathing beauty.
