1. I was outside shoveling the sidewalk this afternoon, and I heard water flowing through the gutters as the snow was melting. I also heard birds!!! I have a sneaking suspicion that spring is on its way, although I cannot be sure, as I have made the mistake before of getting spring fever early and have had my hopes dashed to pieces.
2. Daylight savings time starts on Sunday! It is early this year, and I am okay with that. We get to have daylight longer into the evening, which is soooo wonderful. Also, my kids will sleep later in the morning as it will not be light until 8:15 instead of 7:15. Ahhh, another hour of sleep on Saturdays!
3. Our new kids' DVD of Bible songs. It has animated characters acting out the stories of songs such as Arky, Arky; Peter, James and John in a Sailboat; Who Did Swallow Jonah, etc. The kids love it and are reinforcing their knowledge of Bible stories.
4. Emergen-C. This stuff is GREAT. I have taken it many times this winter when I felt a cold coming on, and usually it has worked to stop the cold from developing any further. Last week I felt a cold coming on while we were in Chicago, so I didn't have any Emergen-C on hand. But I did take some when we got home the next day, and also took some for the next few days and my cold only lasted four days! And the symptoms were pretty mild as well. I cannot recommend this product highly enough. My mom bought a case of it for me - I think she got it at Target. They also make it for kids, too.

I LOVE this post! I always love to get free helpful advice. That DVD sounds great and I am definitely going to get some Emergen-C. THANKS!
Always a great reminder to focus on the great little things of life~it does make you happy!! My boys would love that DVD...thanks for the info. And is Emergen-C a drink? Is it like Airborne?
Michelle, Emergen-C is a powder that you mix with water. I've never had Airborne, so I can't compare. Does Airborne work well?
Where do you get the DVD? That sounds like it has great songs. Thanks for the encouragement, Jill. I have been having the winter blues but thank goodness our snow is melting too. Do you have any good remedies for allergies too? I will have to get some of the Emergen-C for the colds.
Kelly, believe it or not, we got that DVD that Best Buy. We got to pick out a free CD/DVD with our purchase of Turbo Tax. And no, I don't have any good remedies for allergies. Thankfully, we don't suffer much from them.
