Even though there were little patches of snow left on the ground, the sun was out in full force. There's nothing quite like facing the sun and feeling it soak you in its rays after trudging around in the cold.
Isn't it strange how relative the weather can feel? 55 degrees in the summer feels unbearably cold, but that same temperature in the winter makes you want to run around outside in shorts in a t-shirt to get the most of the warm spell.
Kansas is known for its inability to settle on a steady temperature. One day it might be 75 degrees, and the next day it's below freezing. Maybe not that big of a swing, but you get the idea. While it may have been confusing as a kid, I now enjoy the little reprieves this indecisiveness offers us. We just have to make it through those dreary and cold days, because any day the sun will come out again.
I guess that's a lot of what life is. Getting through tough times so that you can enjoy the sweet times that make life so wonderful. Think about those moments that you just want to freeze and bottle up. I often wish I could just push rewind on some of these moments to keep playing them over and over. Would they ever lose their luster over time? I don't think it would be possible.

DeleteI love the last picture! It's so nice to get a reprieve. Kids would come to school in shorts! I love your hair!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Jessica! In high school, I had a rule that as long as it was at least 65 degrees at some point during the day I would wear shorts:) Wasn't always the best idea:)
DeleteWhat a cute outfit! Love it!
