My Spring

Every person I know of has a different definition of what Spring is. Some people consider it to be Spring as soon as we enter the Spring months (March, April and May). It just turned march now. Others Consider it to be Spring when it is Easter which falls on a different day every year. I call it spring when I see Dandelions, Daisies, Daffodils or buttercup flowers in the grass, usually about half way through March. Some people call it Spring when the temperature is in double digits, above 9°c. Some people call is spring when they see blossom in the trees, I see blossom in the trees in February sometimes. 

My government calls it Spring on the Day of the Equinox, the Day when night time and daytime are both equally 12 hours long, this is on the 20th of March. I believe it is a global standard but I'm not sure though. 

What ever definition you choose, my son's birthday is in the middle of Spring in the middle of April and I hope we will celebrate his second birthday without feeling stress and being in a lockdown separated from the rest of the family like last year. My son's third spring is nearly here. 

Happy times.
