Back at the rabbitpatch, all was well. The boxer did his "homecoming dance" and Christopher Robin "sang for his supper" as he always does, the minute I arrive.

At this chaotic and fearful time, when things seem "up in the air" . . . spring came early, like an old friend showing up in the "nick of time."

My last entry was about the beauty of "ordinary" - simplistic greatness, to me.

I came to Elizabeth City on Monday, in fair weather. Hundreds od blossoms adorned the lawns, the woodlands and even the roadside. The three rivers were as blue as could be and all of the world seemed to be singing.

One day turned into another, until somehow, a week had passed. There were all sorts of things going on. Daddy had doctor appointments, there was work and last but not least, the business of selling the rabbit patch.

I returned to the rabbitpatch on Sunday evening. Brant rode back with me and it was a nice change to have company . . . especially his.

April has been a mostly cold month-the early service, on this day is proof of that.

It seems "time really does fly, when you are having fun". It is a mystery to me how an entire week has already passed, in what seems like three days.

It is almost April and still, we wait for tulips. The evenings in March still warrant a blanket and frost blankets the fields of winter wheat, in the first hours, of the day.

As usual, I woke early, this morning. It was dark and rain was falling. I had the window up, as it has been so mild.

November has come to the rabbit patch in a friendly fashion. Days are born slowly with fog and make the territory look enchanted, for a while.

The days have been mostly bright and the nights have been cool and very dark. Of course, there was the beautiful "harvest moon" and since then the sky has been splattered with shining silver stars.

I left school on Friday and headed for Elizabeth City. I had not seen Lyla in almost three weeks, and it felt like longer. I had bought a full tank of gas on Thursday, as already some stations were out of it.

I do love week end mornings at the rabbit patch. Though sometimes, I will sleep a few minutes later, often, I don't.

Once again, I left after school on Friday for Elizabeth City. Sometimes, things just work out. We do not have classes Monday or Tuesday , and it just seemed I was destined to see Lyla wear little wings and wave a wand about, on Halloween
