A spot of cheer in winter

Posted in Reflections

Winter is hard for me.  January and February always seem to be the most difficult to plow through.  Yesterday, I had one of those moments when hope glimmers and you can see that winter doesn't last forever.

DD6 finished with ballet class and we all exited the building.  For a while now, we've been leaving her class in the dark.  The first night that happened, I remember feeling that sense of 'ugh'.  Last night, when we left, there was still some daylight in the sky!  Not bright sun, mind you.  But, light nonetheless.  It surprised me and I felt a surge of hope.  Spring WILL come.  Long days of darkness really don't last forever.  I can keep going.

Right now, the sun is peeking through my window for a brief moment.  Oh, the feeling of light.  How much you miss it when it isn't there.  And how we take it for granted when it is.  I'll just soak in each of those little sun-peek moments and store them up until we get more regular appearances.
