It’s no secret that I hate winters in Ohio and always wonder why I live here during those long months. This past Saturday I went on a little nature hike with a few of the girls and was giddy with all of the greens. I could sit under a tree forever and just read right now.
Elle loves being outside as well. She found a toad and the naturalist there told us how to tell if a toad is a female or a male. It’s not what you think either! Apparently if you hold a toad a certain way it makes a funny sound if it is a male. This is how a male toad tells other male toads to get off of him. Interesting stuff, this nature is.

The reservoir was really high. I wore my mud boots!

I learned a little, exercised a bit and had a nice morning with my girls. Most importantly I got my green intake. May these next few month pass sl-ow-ly please!
By the title of this post I thought Jenna wrote it ;) I am loving this weather too.
I will never forget when I moved to Ohio. The first spring I encountered, I could not believe my eyes! I had never seen electric green before. The trees look electric to me in their shades of green. SPECTACULAR!
I never appreciated Ohio’s green until I lived in Lima, Peru. When we came back it was fall and that Spring just brought such joy to me because of the green!
I thought of her when I wrote the title but I used it anyway since green isn’t my favorite color all the time, just in the Spring!
