Happy May Day! What do you traditionally do to celebrate the passing off of winter and the welcoming warmth of summer? I know some people do all that in April when the official start to spring is, but really? It’s usually still cold in April and some folks still get snow! So…I am celebrating spring in May. I have a spring in my step haha.

So, here to celebrate the newness around us…let’s get organized.
