Spring. It’s here. And I love it. All the first flowers are out and the bushes and trees are sprouting new leaves.

Birds are singing. The swans have left on their flight back north.

The air is warm.

This is something to celebrate. But that’s the minor stuff and only the beginning.

I celebrate the new life that Simon and I are building. I celebrate that every day, new and exciting pieces of the puzzle are falling into place – the pieces that will give us the home we dream of and the life we dream of. But really, it’s not a dream. It’s coming together in real time and it’s all solid.

Soon I will be back in the Koots – back with my love and together we will be building our life together. I can’t think of anything else I need in life to be filled with joy.

And love.
