Dear Spring

Dear Spring,

Hey, long time fan first time complainer. So Spring, I know that you and Utah really have a hard time together and you try to stay away from here as long as possible but I have to admit the tease you gave us last week made me want you pretty bad. I'm begging you please, please, please put aside your petty differences with Utah and it's everwinter state and come stay with us. You see we paid these guys
Lots of money to do this to our backyard.


And when they were all done this is what we got.



Now you maybe saying "big deal. it's a fence." but to me a mom of three wonderful and charming children, this fence is a lifesaver/sanity/mess saver/ peace of mind giver.
See little boy can't run out into the crazy busy street.


And little girl with pigtails can't run away only to find her in neighbors garage torturing cats and destroying organized piles. She's instead learning how to make sand castles out of dirt and discovering where worms come from.

Big girl thinks it's great to play in a backyard and not have to worry about big kids coming and destroying her clubs and therefore she's having much more fun.

And this garden box can actually become a garden box where as mommy of 3 active children can garden while they stay within eye sight.

So please spring, on behalf of little boy, girl in pigtails, big girl and mommy of 3 I implore you please come quickly. I desire nothing more than hanging out in our newly fenced backyard and taking walks to the park and picnicking underneath trees and watching my big girl swing across the monkey bars and twirling down twirly slides. But I can't without your cooperation. So please come quickly make the grass green, bring out blossoms, take the chill off of my shoulders and bring with you the joy that has fizzled out of winter.
Thank you and Sincerely yours,
Andrea
