After a week of rain and ice (yes, ice) the sun has returned this morning.
The blackflies are still nagging us with their presence and temperatures have been less than favourable for getting rid of them.
I really don't mind the rain - and we needed some, and the cooler temperatures don't bother me, but I am pleased to see the sun this morning.

I love this photo.
Henry loves to walk on the ice - it's flat and easy to maneuvre on and so different from all his other landscapes.
He leaves the cutest little trails.
While walking out to get the mail last evening, I felt it.
The air has changed, and the great wheels are turning. Spring is creeping ever closer.
There was a freshness in the air that wasn't there the day before. The smell of new.
It's in the wind, in the golden evening sun. In the slush of my driveway, and the weird crunchy ice like dirty lace, that forms on the gravel shoulder of the road. It's in the cockeyed grin of my slowly diminishing snow girl.
