whimsical wednesday

it's whimsical wednesday! we are celebrating the first day of spring as well as the international day of happiness!

after a long, hard winter we welcome spring. go outside! look around for signs of the season of the earth's renewal, take a walk, sit in the sunshine, listen to the birds, observe other wildlife who are also, no doubt, welcoming spring.

the united nations established the international day of happiness in 2015. follow the link to learn more about how you can be a part of this international event:

for whimsical wednesday i used the link above and joined the international happiness organization. while doing so i read about the mission and the activities they offer. the goal of the organization is to create environments in which people can be happy. to that end, i gathered plastic lids and took them to the local library. the library's project, which i learned about this week, is the creation of an outdoor bench for the library grounds made with the donated lids. 

it has been raining on this first day of spring but i was still about to enjoy being outside in between rain showers. trees are beginning to bud, grass is growing and becoming very green, the birds are merrily singing and the turtles are hanging out lakeside! when the turtles emerge it is spring. and the daffodils are about to bloom...

almost!
