    Same to you! My kids are on break from school for about another week and the weather here is (finally) looking up, so we are hoping to enjoy the coming days. Today the sun came out for the first time in a while. I wish everyone a happy Easter, Passover and Spring

      Happy Easter!

      To think that last Easter, I hadn't even really thought about having this surgery, and I hadn't yet happened upon this board. Now, I feel like this place is a home away from home!

              Jennifer -

              I don't remember last Easter either. It was winter when I went in for surgery and a couple weeks later when I stepped outside for that first 'official' walk, I stopped in shock in the middle of the driveway because Spring had happened while I was napping. All the trees were either flowering or had small leaves on them and the daffodils were up.....it was Beautiful!

              Happy Easter All!

                Funny thing, Jess - I looked out the window today and saw our puppy (a 9-month old hound mix) sprawled out in the yard taking in the sun like she was at the beach! I guess they enjoy spring like the rest of us
