West Virginia Treasures: The Robins are Here!

The Robins are Here!

On Wednesday of last week when we were flooded in my Little Man looked out the window and said, "look at all of those birds in the yard"! I got up to see what was going on.

I was surprised to see that it was Robins in the yard! Robins are a sure sign that spring is right around the corner! In my opinion, Robins are more accurate than that pesky old ground hog!

Here's to hoping that spring will come soon! I'm so over this cold weather we've been having. Yeah, I'd love a big deep snow, but at this point the kids were supposed to get out of school the end of May. Now they will have to go to school until June 11th! I don't ever remember going to school that late into the summer. The sad thing is they started the kids way sooner this summer too. Between the snow days and the water crisis days along with the days that they let them off when they could have went this is what happened.

The Boston Lady said...: I love Robins! I wonder if they have them here in CA? My mother always used to sing the song 'When the Red, red, robin comes bob, bob, bobbin' along".... Reminds me of her when I see them.

I remember going to school that late into June when I was young, last century.... Ann; February 11, 2014 at 9:51 PM
