Mine:
1. The forsythia are blooming. These bright yellow flowering shrubs spring to life from the midst of the drabest, brown pile of branches. What better analogy to new life from a cold winter? Ok, so maybe rodents popping their heads out of the ground, but still.
2. The birds chirping in the morning. I don't mean once the sun pops out, but around 5 am when it is still dark. Chrip, chirp, chirp....STOP THE NOISE! I'M SLEEPING HERE! Oh, um...sorry. Twitter, twitter little friends and yes, please do mate outside my bedroom window!

3. The air takes on a freshness. Now, don't get me wrong, nothing like the freshness of Ireland's air. Seriously, it is pure ambrosia to breathe on the isle of Eire. But it is nicer, filled with promise of beauty and serenity.
4. The clock springs forward. Are you really certain that you are reading this at 8 am? Or is it REALLY 7 am. Are you late for church? Are you wondering why Sunday Morning on CBS is going off instead of just coming on? Is your body protesting, demanding to find that extra hour of sleep it lost?
5. And here in Kentucky land you know Spring is here when college basketball tournaments are on. Yes, last night actually stayed up to watch University of Louisville and Notre Dame go into OT with the Cardinals winning! I don't usually have a specific allegiance t
o any one team within the state, but I've fallen in love with one of their players. Here's a picture of my new hero, Kyle Kuric :D
What about you? Come on, fess up. Does the sight of Peeps in the store make you want to frolic in the tulips? What are your sure signs that spring is here?
