Appreciating Memories of April Fools

This week, we post a new personal growth tip or inspiration drawn from a recent Daily Dose of Happiness mailing.

Time flies, and already it's April Fools Day.  You can look forward to the warm caress of the spring sun or look back to all the things you planned to do in winter, but never quite got around to.  There certainly were plenty of those in our house.

But we also did a lot of things, visited a lot of people, had a lot of fun.  What little snow we got this year did get some use, even if we would have liked more.  We did get over to the arena a few times, even if not every weekend (and the girls did get their skating lessons).  And just before the snow melted, we finally got that winter campfire we kept meaning to do (not quite "once a week", but at least it was once!).

And now we have spring to look forward to.  To finish that stone path, set up the patio table and maybe this will be the year we tame the forest in the loop of the driveway (but you'll have to wait for October to know for sure).  Either way, spring and summer will be great for all the things we will do, regardless of the things we don't.

Don't be an April Fool. Look forward to another four seasons to enjoy.
