Bright, sunny mornings!

Bright, sunny mornings do SO much to encourage me! It's hard to believe that something as common and ordinary as a bright blue sky with a warm sun can do so much to my attitude in the morning.

My goal for the past couple of months has been to get up earlier than I have been doing. Yeah, it's working. Kinda. Luke doesn't have to leave for work real early, I don't have any little ones running around demanding that I get up and since I work from home and don't have to be at work at a certain time, there are days that the temptation to stay cuddled up in bed next to my husband is just too great. I give in. And stay there, enjoying the warmth and laziness.

A few weeks ago, I was on a roll in getting up earlier. But then the time change happened. Getting up what seemed to my body an hour earlier in addition to darker mornings, just kinda ruined that roll I was on. Then we had a cold, blast of winter with snow and ice. This is March! It's supposed to be the beginning of spring! The cold winter blast didn't really encourage me to get out of bed any earlier.

But do you know what does? Blue skies. Bright sunny mornings. The look that spring is coming! The last two mornings have been just as I described and I'm fully ready to jump out of bed and enjoy the fact that it will soon be warm again!
