One of the first things I do on bright, crisp spring mornings is raise the blinds and throw open the windows.
We’ve had some beautiful weather lately and I just have to say that I love those spring days where you just feel compelled to open all the windows in the house. The cool air of the morning rushes in, gradually warming as the sun travels across the sky until the chill of the dusk requires you to give in and start closing windows one by one.
But until dusk comes creeping in the scent of freshly cut grass lingers on the breeze that comes rippling through the open windows to ruffle the curtains and both dogs and cats crowd ‘round, nostrils shivering as they try to capture all the smells that the wandering wind brings in. I love how open and airy house it makes the house. It just gives a home so much more vibrancy and life. Almost like letting a little bit of the outdoors in.
E has been enjoying the open windows lately too. She likes to stand in the window (She particularly likes to stand in the dog bed by the window, as you may have noticed.), randomly shriek and watch the neighborhood kids run by.
It’s the simple things. ♥
What simple things have you be enjoying lately?
