Day 29
Today I am thankful that I live in a part of the country that has the changing of the seasons. I know that I have moaned and groaned about it getting colder and how much I dread it but I really am thankful for the changing of the seasons. It is hard for me to imagine living somewhere that the climate stayed the same year round. My favorite season is probably the spring time. After a long, dreary, cold winter being able to see new life coming out is a sign of hope. Even with all the pollen and the sneezing and the itchy, watery eyes how can you not love seeing new growth on trees and flowers blooming. With winter being my least favorite there is still something magical about that first snowfall. When a blanket of snow covers everything and sounds seem to be muffled. And to just sit and watch the snow fall. How amazing it is that those tiny little flakes can eventually cover everything. Then to feel the summer sun on your skin. To just gaze into the sky and feel the sun heat you. Yeah I know that with that comes a lot of sweating and chaffing but there are still those moments. Then the fall to watch leaves changing colors and those days that it is just cool enough for long sleeves but no jacket. Even though it signals that winter is on the way there is just something about a crisp fall morning. Yes, I enjoy the changing of the seasons. It allows me to enjoy God's creation at it's finest.
