You don’t know how much the cabin fever has gotten to you until the first warm and dry day hits and you can go outside without a coat and just chase the animals, pick the flowers and be amazed at that bush great grandma calls pussywillow.
That seemed to be the CBW’s feelings when she took off out the back door to enjoy spring. She could not believe how good it felt to just be able to run without many boundaries. She had to see the chickens, the alpaca, pet the dogs and cats, check the koi fish, and in general just dash about laughing. She found out crocus do not taste that good, the bees still don’t like her and she cannot pet them even to try and make friends, and great-grandma gets all hissy-fitty when her CBW tries to climb anything higher than her swingset climbing wall. She learned that just because the woodpile is by the back shed roof does not make for a good idea. It gets you brought back inside for a fifteen minute break. She sobbed at the back door like her little heart would break. Great-Grandpa took pity on her and they went back out. He managed to put a barrier around the wood pile so there was no more climbing, but he also let her run in the back two acre field until she just about dropped and had to be carried back home and set into bed.
That is the life of a toddler on a farm and all babies ought to have that in this old ladies opinion. I have good friends who are raising kids in apartments and in town where there is no fresh air or bugs to watch, just cartoons and video games, perhaps Legos. I almost feel as if they’re deprived.
Our spring day ended up the next day with 6 tornados in Ohio, high winds, hail, heavy rain, thunder and lightening here. What a mess! However, it did allow me to get the March specials set up: I am going to list them all for you and will remind you of them each week so you can take advantage of them.
