A few new leaves

There's a nice big shade tree outside my living room window. A week ago it was pretty bare and dead looking, but today it's green! Because we live on the second story of our building, looking out the living room window is like looking out of a tree house. We're right up in the branches and the new leaves. It's really refreshing to lay on the couch and stare up into the tree. I've been told that green is a relaxing color, but I don't think I've ever really appriciated that fact until now.
