Ahh...Spring!

I know I probably say this again and again but I love Spring! It is probably my favorite time of year and this year in Iowa, Spring was probably longer than it usually is. There is nothing and I mean....absolutely nothing that beats walking underneath trees that have flowers weighing down their branches, walking along flower strewn paths, stopping to smell the tulips and hyacinth and lying down on the grass on a lazy Sunday afternoon.

It's a season for regrowth, for the old to die away and for the new to come up. For things to blossom and grow literally and figuratively speaking. I never realized how hard it is to be a relationship, I mean...I know its no walk in the park but then again, just to realize the magnitude of the time and energy invested into that special someone. To want to make things work. I find myself doubting at times if we are right for each other but then again, I find myself proven wrong again and again.

Knowing that we bring out the best and...the worst in each other but in a good way. We both have our faults and skeletons; we're still rough on the edges. The issues that crop up brings up the friction that we need to smooth out our rough edges, helping make us better people. Finding that we both have skeletons in our closests, the ones that we're trying to forget and get rid of, knowing that we can't do it by ourselves. Realizing that's why were here for each other.

You also know its Spring when you're walking down the street and a carload of guys drive by, honking at you. :P
