April, April It Does What It Likes

That’s the translation of what the Swiss say about April’s weather–April, April, der macht was er will.

To give you an idea, watch this TikTok by the city of Luzern which went viral.

Here’s a look at temperatures over the last week in my region:

In just a few days, you can see the wide temperature changes, from a high of 9 degrees last Wednesday to a high of 21 degrees just 3 days later.

While April weather has always been slightly erratic, I think in the 20 over years we have been it, it has never been so changeable and it is worrying to say the least. I believe it’s climate change and I try my best to do my part to slow climate change.

But are we past the point of no return? Can we still slow climate change enough to make a difference? What do you think?

Spring and New Life…

This year the clocks move forward on the same morning as Easter Sunday – Spring’s arrival brings to mind new life and celebrating Easter also highlights new life.

So I want to share 2 things with you: firstly, a Bible verse:

“For God so loved the world that He gave His one and only Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have eternal life.” – John 3:16

Good Friday is a solemn remembrance of Jesus’ death and Easter Sunday is the joyful celebration of Jesus’ resurrection – these 2 events are major pillars of my Christian faith. Jesus took my sins on himself, died on the cross to pay the price for my sins and He rose again on the third day so that I can have a relationship with the Almighty Creator God.
New life in Christ Jesus is why I celebrate Easter.

As you think about new life, here’s the second part: enjoy some beautiful pictures of new life from nature I took this week:

Wishing you and your loved ones a very Blessed Easter!

High Time for a Dedicated Lexi Post

Oh my, I just checked and am so shocked to realised that I have not posted about Lexi since mid-2021! I have featured her in some of our other posts but there has not been a Lexi solo post for many moons. So let’s enjoy some Lexi adorable-ness:

Hope you enjoyed that 😀

I will try not to wait so very long to do another Lexi post.

Happy Almost Weekend!
