Spring!

I love Spring.....probably one of my favorite seasons. I like Winter because of Christmas and the Holidays but I HATE cold and snow. Why do I live in Ohio, again? This winter lasted forever. A lot of cold, wind, and snow. I was so glad to have warmer weather - it got up to 60 on Saturday. Baby Ryan got a nasty sunburn but it has now faded to just pink cheeks which is adorable! We couldn't get the kids to come inside and even Ryan threw a fit when we made them venture indoors for meals....it's a nice problem.
It's just teasing us, though.....it's supposed to snow on Saturday. I call it the S-Word - I despise it so much. It's time to move on to warm temps permanently now.
We implemented a new chore system for the girls. We felt it was time to do away with the "free ride" at home and are giving them simple chores to do to help around the house. At first, they felt very persecuted and whined and complained. But once they saw they can earn some fun things - nothing expensive but fun! - they came around. We'll see how it works. So far, nothing has worked very well. Maybe we'll have a breakthrough - I like to think positively!
