Spring! It’s really here at last! For awhile there I didn’t dare say the word– you know, lest winter decided to show it’s face again– and I just didn’t feel it was fair to toy with my emotions like that. But this week! Well this week I have certainly been dancing to the sweet songs of spring.
I hope you’re enjoying my west coast posts as much I am enjoying putting them together. It’s fun to be reliving our days out there, and it’s also fun to be blogging so much again, too. It’s been pretty good since we got back into town. At school, our big “Second Grade Day” came and went without a hitch. The parents came and the kids showed off their hard work and projects and everything was grand. I have really loved this year. It has been challenging and it has been GOOD. As the year comes to a close I find myself wanting to hold on just a little bit longer to this group of kids. This always happens– May comes and then June, and I get all clingy and nostalgic. Every time without fail. I think it’s because we always get into the best groove right towards the end and I love that SO SO much. 6 weeks left and it’s going to fly right by.
The weekends lately have been for enjoying springtime in the city. Last Saturday I ventured to the South End and yesterday I spent the afternoon in Fort Point. Both are areas of the city that I LOVE. It’s been such nice weather {even despite the rain} that I feel this energy and love towards Boston. THIS always happens each year as well. Spring marches in and I get passion eyes for this city all over again. Cheers to you, Boston, and your places and your people. Spring really suits you.

HAPPY MOTHERS DAY to all you mothers out there,
and your mothers and grandmothers,
And loving women everywhere!
I love you, MOM!!!! XO
Makes me miss Boston in springtime! You captured it beautifully!
I agree with Emily! I worked as a nurse at MGH after graduating from college, and I felt alive again when spring finally arrived in beautiful Boston.
I feel so much the same way! People ask how can you stay in Boston with the winters. Spring. The answer is spring. (Even with my allergies.)
I’m excited for more West Coast posts!
Spring really does look good here. I can’t get over how good it has felt.. all weekend and even today! It is sooo funny to me though that the white flowered trees TOTALLY look like trees covered with snow.. I never realized it before. If you squint it’s like we’re right back in February. Thank gosh we’re not :)
we drove through beacon hill sunday looking for parking. i was legit in awe of the flowers/trees/petals all over the ground. this city is sooooooo good right now.
