Spring is sprung

February 10, 2012 by Beth Shepherd

Spring is sprung, the grass is ris.
I wonders where the birdies is?
They say the birds is on the wing.
Ain’t that absurd?
I always thought the wing was on the bird.

Some might fend off a mid-life crisis by leaving the comforts of their corporate salary to jet off to a deserted island. Others might buy a Jaguar. I’ve chosen to dive head-long into my 50s and beyond by becoming a first-time parent. At any given moment you might find me holding a camera, a spade, a spatula or a suitcase. Or my little girl's hand. Adopted from Armenia, she puts the Pampers and Paklava into my life.
