Spring Fever!

Spring is officially here! I love this time of year. It's not bone-chilling cold as winter and not sticky-humid as summer. Quite enjoyable is spring and, no doubt, it always makes me want to transfer my work to laptop and work under a tree at a local park! I'm looking forward to the Country Music 1/2 marathon, sharpening my guitar playing abilities, painting, traveling, a couple of Nashville symphony pops performances, and Memphis in May, just to name a few. Oh, how can I forget Mule Day! I'm bringing a few friends down this year so they can be a part of one of small town America's finer festivals! Here are some links to Spring events I'm looking forward to: www.muleday.com, www.cmmarathon.com, and www.memphisinmay.org.
Get out and play!

Small Wonders

So far, 2005 has brought forth 2 small joys. The first is my most precious baby niece who is 1 month old today. Happy birthday, Channing! She is so soft, squishy, and snuggly. The whole family is smitten!
The second small joy worth mentioning is baby Claire. My friends are on their way across the globe to get her as I type. Updates on their adventure are on www.sumnerkid.blogspot.com.
The recent baby boom has me delving into the reality that I someday might catch on to this child-rearing thing (scary thought, now!), although one key ingredient to this mix is the long sought after eligible bachelor! Guys, come closer! Seriously, I do think there are hidden mothering qualities in all us gals that conveniently materialize on an as needed basis! I'm looking forward to spoiling my niece rotten and learning all about those baby milestones!
