Dark Drive

Last week, I really enjoyed the sunrise on my morning drive. However, I knew it would be short-lived. Just as soon as it arrived, Daylight Saving Time would take it away. 

Today, I made two trips to my car. One trip was with apples for the kids at school, lunches for me, water, and coffee. The second trip was with my backpack, purse, keys, and coat. I didn't realize it right away, but then, I did. 

Hmm, I'll have to wait a while before I see it again. 

From that moment, I started to remember all the things I look forward to seeing this time of year: my first robin, snowdrops, and the sun peeking slowly more and more each day again. In a few days or weeks, it will all begin. You never really know in Michigan.

I look forward to the start of that transition, and that gives me a spring in my step.
