Cara: It's Friday - March Madness
Posted by
Cara Springtime is the land awakening.
The March winds are the morning yawn.

Isn't just March nutty? It always is for me. My first baby was born in March...three weeks early..my water broke at my baby shower...then there was a huge snowstorm so we had to bring her home a day earlier than we were scheduled to go home...in literally a foot of snow. (Oh! And I had no shoes, my family forgot to bring them for me!)
One day I wear my flip flops to run to the store...then the next day I am bundled up with a scarf and gloves freezin' my petunias off at the baseball field.
I want a fire in the fireplace at sundown after an afternoon of reading my magazine out in the sun.
We set the clocks ahead and everyone's a little off for a few days especially when I take a week to change the clock in the car and can't remember what the heck time it's supposed to be!
After a winter of staying in and long cold nights...suddenly no one wants to do homework after school...we eat dinner late cause it feels like 5:30 but really it's 7:00...and it's waaay too cozy in bed in the morning to get up before the birds. Suddenly the calendar "squares" are jammed packed with a zillion "to do's"...sports kick in full throttle...and graduation day is only weeks away.
March Madness may have something to do with basketball for some people but it's got a totally different meaning for me! I am so hoping for permanent flip flop weather sooner than later.
As Robin Williams said "Spring is nature's way of saying, "Let's party!" Sounds good to me.
