Surprisingly up until last week the weather in Upstate New York has been mild. January 31st was like a spring day and we missed the snowstorms that dumped a few feet of the white stuff to areas less than 60 minutes from us. In fact, we have no snow on the ground at all. We did experience bone chilling cold temperatures of\u00a0\u00a0-6 degrees Fahrenheit last weekend. It has warmed up, but nowhere near the\u00a0early spring like temperatures we were having a few weeks ago.<\/p>\n
Christmas day was so warm we had dandelions blooming but ironically, Mother Nature wants to give us a taste of winter before spring rolls in. It looks like the next 10 days will only bring us highs in the 30’s and 40’s along with some snow showers. \u00a0Oh well, it can’t last that long, at least I hope it won’t. I am eager to see the first Robin Red Breast of spring. Speaking of spring, I have a great book to share with you. The Legend of the Easter Robin<\/a><\/em><\/strong> is a great book that is perfect to share with your own child or any special child in your life to captivate and teach them about compassion and faith.<\/p>\n
