March is noted for erratic weather, but it rolled in quite peaceably this year. Don’t get your hopes up for a calm and soothing transition from winter to spring. Windy gusts and temperatures usually play hide and seek all month long - up and down. This month spring will officially be acknowledged, St. Patrick’s Day pops in for a bit of fun, and Easter will give us pause to consider our fate and reflect on our faith. The kids look forward to scrambling about in search of those brightly colored eggs to fill their baskets, with the hope of finding the prize egg. Don’t forget that March is the lamb-lion month, so batten down the hatches!
