Sunny Day, Sweeping the clouds away

Well for once the weather man was right! partly at least... it's been raining for the past couple of days, but this morning dawned bright and sunny with a few clouds in the sky. a perfect day for a birthday! Yvonne woke me up at 9.30 to say Happy Birthday and i dragged myself out of bed, ate a huge breakfast, organized my room, and put away my little Christmas tree for the rest of the year. For me the Christmas season isn't over until my birthday, then and only then should the decorations come down. my family doesn't quite see it that way though so the big tree comes down before New Years....:S i wrote a few letters, walked to the mailbox, and realized what a truly beautiful day it was today! i raced home, grabbed a scarf and my camera and set off again. the wind blew away my winter blues and the sun warmed me to the core, the first sun in about almost a month really, and what a comeback! God may be melting away all the frosting He put on the city but He's leaving behind a lush and green landscape. Thank you Lord!
And now it's off to my birthday dinner....21 years old!
