Early this morning as I was laying in bed I heard a song bird. It was such an amazing sound and I was happy. I was just wondering the other day when would be the morning that I first heard a songbird this year. This is my third winter here in Iowa. Every year sometime in the very end of February or the beginning of March I hear a songbird in the morning instead of the ever present "Caw, caw" of the big black crow that I now associate with winter. You know, both of my girls have first responded with "caw, caw" when asked what a bird says. It's that crow.
Anyway, Spring is somewhere in the future. I'm sure of it now.
But in the midst of all my wonderment and joy Brian said, "He didn't get the memo."
"Huh?" says I.
"The memo that says the high on Wednesday is 14."

We have snow here in MI too, but I was just telling Joel there are many things I miss about IA, but one thing I don't miss about IA is the winter weather. I have heard that you guys are getting hit hard this year! I'm glad you heard the bird and hopefully that means Spring isn't too far off for IA or MI!
