spring has sprung!

Driving home tonight, I noticed the green surrounding me. Just last week, my sister's roommate was commenting on how much prettier Nebraska would be if things were green instead of brown. I chuckled and agreed, thinking we'd have several more weeks of brown before spring would "officially" hit. It's amazing to me just how quickly beautiful, green grass can shoot up. Suddenly, the world no longer looks like winter (or August in the middle of a drought) . . . it's SPRING!!! And that fact makes my heart smile.
