4 Signs of Spring

Sign 1: Field

Yesterday when we went outside, the first place we visited was the practice football field and looked for signs of spring to come. The first sign I saw was the leaves on the trees were coming back. It felt really good outside if you had a light jacket on. If the wind wasn't blowing as hard as it was you wouldn't need a jacket because the sun was shining  EXTRA bright. The birds were out and happy and chirping.

Sign 2: Pond

The next stop was the pond. The wind was still blowing.
