I’m not sure when this “Polar Bear” started going soft, but man, I’m so ready for spring. I blame it completely on America and the fact that it was 85 in February in Florida. It totally messed me up, seasonally.

So all growing up I hear that “If it rains on Easter Sunday, it will rain for the next 7 Sundays.” I thought of that a few days ago, on Easter. I wondered what the allowance was for if it snowed on Easter. God forbid that it snow for the next 7 Sundays… that would put us into the beginning of May. That’s just not going to work for me. Maybe it’s that it will snow for the next 7 days, which would be all week. Now that it’s Wednesday, I can see how that could work, as it’s been snowing off and on since Sunday. We go from whiteouts to gentle flakes in moments. The kids are enjoying the snow, that’s for sure. They’re outside trying to snowboard down a hill that is maybe 8 feet high. (Do you think Jesus had to deal with snow when he rose from the dead on Easter morning? I’m glad that was most likely not an issue for Him!)

So, with this in mind, I can’t understand why people wouldn’t want to spend their Spring Break in Latvia! We have beaches here, too! And besides, here you wouldn’t have to worry so much about skin cancer so much as you’d be completely covered up!

Hey, look, it’s a whiteout again… go figure.
