"March 9, 2020" 

Prompt: "What is your first memory of being really excited?"

One of the fondest memories I have is of my father and I going to a general store way out in the country in a very rural area of the county I lived in.The store was in an old log cabin building or at least a very old building. Dad took me there and we bought ice cream and some toy tools, which we then took home. I remember playing with the tools next to the porch as the full moon glowed in the sky above us. It was a warm day and must have been summer or autumn. That was the closest I ever felt to my dad.

"Prompt: There are about ten days left until the first day of spring. What are you looking forward to about spring?"

I always look forward to watching everything turn green again in the summer.Spring and summer are my two favorite seasons because everything is green and showing signs of new life. While things are alive in the winter as well, they are dormant and look dead. I love the renewed life of spring time. I love watching the flowers come up and feeling the days getting warmer. I love dressing lighter and enjoying the sunshine. I also like the sound of a distant thunderstorm in the spring. I guess I pretty much love everything about spring and summer.
