Popcorn Popping!



"I could take an armful and make a treat. A popcorn ball that would smell so sweet..."

Who doesn't love this old primary song? Jackson asks us to sing it again and again! He loves the actions we do with our hands and loves that there is a song about popcorn, one of his favorite treats.

The last couple of days have been beautiful promises of Spring. Although it may last for only a few days (tomorrow's forecast calls for snow!), we've tried to enjoy it the best we can. Our trees are bursting out in pink and white blossoms, and really do look like popcorn, or "pakern" as Jackson would say. He will even point at them and say "pretty". I love this time of year and the life that begins to creep out of a long winter of hibernation.

We spent all day outside enjoying the sun. We had a picnic at the park with Dad, played with bubbles and sidewalk chalk, went for a walk and even played in a little water. For FHE we sang the popcorn popping song and made popcorn balls for desert.

As much as I love Spring, it wouldn't be near as special without these two guys!
