AH! The trees are officially covered in leaves and it made me so happy that I decided to blog about it. Okay, so I'm not going to only talk about Spring, but I did find a quote about it today that I thoroughly agree with, no matter how old you are. Margaret Atwood once said, "In the Spring, at the end of the day, you should smell like dirt." Well, I have succeeded. I laid in the grass for like thirty minutes today doing absolutely nothing except thanking God for the beauty of this season. It was awesome.

Oh, this is Kara by the way. I'm pretty sure Mom has already forgotten about this. Just kidding. Maybe. But I am going to tell her that she better start writing again or I will have to kick her out of this little thingie-ma-jig.

Family story of the day: So earlier today while I was at school and Mom was taking a break from teaching the boys, Cooper decided that he was going to make a slide out of a 2x4. So he's sliding down and apparently he got a huge splinter in his behind and Mom had to take him to convenient care. She said he screamed very loudly. Of course. But they put the splinter thing in this little container and I saw it earlier and it is big! So there's today's interesting story from the Crenshaw household.

What else has happened lately?.... Oh, I went barefoot at school on April 8th for a little bit until the teachers started getting onto some of the other kids since my principal ended up not letting us support it. Thumbs down. Oh well, maybe next year we'll organize it sooner. Ummm... My friends and I had our day in the park. We had an awesome picnic and then we flew kites, or attempted to, at least. I got mine up at one point for about five minutes, but then the string broke and my kite disappeared into someone's yard across the street. Here's the sweet part though: one of my church friends was there so he tried to go get my kite for me. He couldn't get it but we talked to him for a little bit and played with his little dog, Jane.

Well, I don't really have anything else to say. I guess I'll go now. This definitely isn't an awkward way to end a blog...
