The temperature reached the 40s today and I found myself, as I was bringing in the last of our firewood, trying to figure out what that smell was. Mud and wet grass.
It's amazing how the snow that you would sink two feet into a couple of days ago can be walked on top of now. Aidan and Wes had a blast in the warm air snow. Wes would lay down right in the side of a snow drift, making a sort of a den for himself. His tracks all over the field are especially visible right now and it always makes me so happy to see them. I am not sure why, I guess I just imagine how much fun it is for him to run around like that. It's like a visual representation of freedom.
And tomorrow: an ice storm.
(we have oil now)

Check to be sure the flash lights have working batteries. Ice usually means electricity will go off. We are having rain, rain, and more rain. So far 3" and counting - in less than 2 days. The back pasture is a lake and the corn fields next to us are flooding. We are all looking forward to Spring!!Love, Mom
