Here comes the sun!!

Today for me is the happiest day of the year. Many see the winter solstice as a bad thing- the least daylight of all days. For me is it the best since for the next 6 months the days will only get longer. While it is the official first day of Winter for me it represents a different turning point. Here in Hershey it has already been cold for a while, longer days mean the approach of spring. I feel that much closer to feeling the warm grass under my toes already. Really- with more sunlight each day things can only get better, right?
