I don't know about you all, but this weather has got me in a funk.
the wintertime blues are no joke, people!
i'm so over being cooped up inside,
doing the same things,
trying to keep a 19 month entertained with limited options...
basically, i'm ready for spring,
which equals nice weather (am I right!?)
as J and I were preparing to sit down and eat our lunch this afternoon,
a flash of red caught my eye.
I looked out the window to the neighbors tree
and saw the most beautiful bright red cardinal.
it brought tears to my eyes and reminded me of two things:
first, it was a sign of hope,
and I have no doubt that God sent it especially for me.
it was almost as if He was saying,
"hold on. spring is just around the corner. be patient, my child."
it also reminded me of my grandpa,
who is no longer with us.
both he and my grandma loved to look out the window in their home
to see all of the wildlife outside, especially the birds.
...and it just so happens that his favorite baseball team was
the cardinals.
it was just the sign I needed to keep trudging through this season...
it will be over shortly,
and there will be new, exciting things on the horizon.
Pin It Now!
