spring in the air.

i have to tell you. i love the spring.

i always thought i was such a fall girl... and believe me, i still am. i love the scarves, the falling leaves, and the mugs of chai that come with fall.

but i love the spring too. i mean, there are lightweight scarves [which if you're in italy, you MUST wear until may, no matter the climate]. the leaves are coming back and the flowers are in bloom. and while chai may no longer be the drink of choice, there is a seriously delicious batch of granita awaiting.

the spring reminds me so much of rebirth. with easter upcoming, it is nearly impossible to think about anything other than the resurrection. at least i think so. it's everywhere. i am constantly reminded of how Christ died on the cross and literally paid the penalty for every single last one of my sins. every. last. one.

so hello spring. thank you for the daily visual reminder of my Savior. for His love. for His grace. His sacrifice. and His triumph over death.
