I can feel Spring in the air!  The patio steps are warm from the sun's touch but the cold air makes me pop back inside for a jacket!  The thermometer says it's 62 degrees Farenheit but it seems warmer than that. 

And then, as my marbles fell out of my pocket and went ping,

          ping,

                    ping

                              down the wooden stairs - I saw them:  A big pile of quiet ladybugs right under the patio!  The space was dark and cool.  I watched them for awhile - they didn't move at all.  It was almost like they were sleeping.
