cruel season

"It's a cruel season that makes you get ready for bed when it's still light outside."

--quote from Ben, last night after his at art class and a piano lesson, as we were finishing dinner at 7:50pm, with only 10 minutes left to play outside.

(I think it's a cruel season that gives you 65 degrees one day and snow the next.  At least today is the 65 degree day, before we have to brace ourselves for tomorrow!!  I'd better go mow the lawn now before it's too late.)
