[Last month Dana posted a "Retro HNT", and challenged others to do the same once a month or so.  As it so happens I had already done so on the same day, so I was in for the challenge.  The first Thursday of each month I'll try to compose something fully dressed.]

We gaze out the window, thinking back to just last weekend when the last of the snow had melted, the air was warm, and my little man and I could play in the yard, sans jackets.

He dashed back and forth between the swings, the slide and the monkey bars, as if he couldn’t decide which he missed the most, and repeatedly calling out “This is great dad!  I’m so glad spring is finally here!”

And then we got 10″ of snow on Monday *pouting and foot stomping ensues…*

Until the true arrival of spring, all we can do is gaze out the window at the snow covered yard, remembering the fun we had last summer and anticipating the summer to come…

Happy HNT!

    I’m sitting gazing out the window too, wondering when it will stop and debating if I should go shovel one more time before I go to bed. Happy HNT!
