It happens every year - right around my birthday which is tomorrow. You wake up one morning and hear birds chirping for the first time in a couple of months - not too loudly, just a faint peep. Then on your morning walk, you spy a cardinal - beautifully red against the sky, the trees bare and recovering from winter - and this winter was really a winter!
It is lighter longer - you look at the clock at 5:15 and exclaim, "It's still light out!"
And today, February 16, my thermometer actually says - 55 degrees - !
Not that we are totally out of the woods yet, but it is the sign of things to come. Maybe some of my crocuses will show their colors soon.....
