Holidays With a Change In the Weather

Holidays with a change in the weather It starts with a chill in the air. January the first day of the first month. A new thought of expectations, a new way, a plan to get in gear, a perfect way to start a new year. February the month we confess and show our love with a quote, some flowers, some chocolate , or even a love note. This month is for couples to show their love with snuggles. It's Valentine's Day the most affectionate month to let the other know we care. The only month with a leap year. March the month where it is all about four cloves, leprechauns, pots of gold, and green beer. St Patrick's Day the greenest holiday of the year, it's the arrival of a new season saying bye to the snow and watching the start of new things to grow. April's first day of tricks and jokes on different folks. Easter Sunday, children hunting eggs of color under rocks and tall grass hiding under cover. Knowing April's showers help grow May flowers. Its the month we celebrate the first day of May, then onto the 5th Cinco de Mayo a Mexican holiday. Then we celebrate Mothers and Memorial Day, thank God for their wisdom and the men and women for our freedom. The red, white, and blue the flag with stars, stripes celebrated in the month of June. The month we pay tribute to our Fathers along with the first day of summer. It's time for the end of school and the start of playing in the pool. I pledge allegiance to the flag, when the Rockets set glare and bombs bursting in the air. The 4th day of July a time for barbecues and bottle rockets to fly. Thanks to our forefathers the time our Independence was signed. August when it's the hottest month and it has National Watermelon and S'mores day. A month with out holidays. Summer is winding down and the start to school is coming around. September's Labor Day, the working men and women's holiday, we give thanks to all you do. Then the most terrifying day when our men and women's lives were taken away, 911 the remembrance of our loved one's in a horrible way. As summer sneaks away autumn is on its way we celebrate grandparents and Native American day. October, Columbus found out the world wasn't flat but actually round. The leaves fall from the trees and cover the ground. Halloween, tricker treat smell my feet witches and goblins on every street going neighbor to neighbor collecting and filling their bags with sweet treats. All Saints day a Christian holiday. The first day of November Then on our way to election day. Then we stopped on the 11th to observe our veterans the men and women who gave us life, liberty, and the ultimate sacrifice. We set around the table eating turkey, Thanksgiving a day we are joined friends and family being together. Thanking God for the years blessing and endeavors. December's with the shortest day and winter is here to stay with children sledding and snowman making and counting down to the 25 day Christmas is on its way. The day is here the children hope to hear Santa and his reindeer. It's now the last day its here and everybody cheers on a new year
