There’s a great old bluegrass song called “Footprints in the Snow”.

“I traced her little footprints in the snow….
I found her little footprints in the snow….
bless that happy day, when Nelly lost her way,
for I found her as the snow lay on the ground….”

When I looked outside this morning, I was reminded of the song when I saw the cut little footprints in the new fallen snow of the night before. I love how they are so evenly paced with each set of tracks. Of course, they are kitty tracks… mostly Jack and Luna I believe.

And then I was sure about it. Jack emerged from under the snowy car where he was hanging out and watching the rainy ice fall.

We’ve had a dark and gloomy day, with a little icy rain falling on top of a little bit of snow. I wish it was more rain than cold, but soon. It’s going to be March in just a week, so it won’t be long. Just another few weeks to get all my projects finished up and ready for the sunshine.

Of course, I’m a little bummed that I spent $6 getting Jessy’s wagon washed for her! But, it did look nicer and it really needed it. A good sunny day and it will all melt away.

I was looking back through photos and this was the second week of April… and we were already getting our raised beds in order and the world was green and getting ready. Thats about 6 weeks from now. I better get busy on some work projects and get it all done and ready so that come first of April, I can be ready to really start being an outside gal again. I can’t wait to spend a whole spring and summer with our little moby farm and the hammock and all that. Just can’t wait. I need some sunshine!!!
