Yep, it is now my most favorite month of the year, for many, many reasons, which means it is time for…
The Top Ten Reasons I Heart March!
(in no particular order)
1. St. Patrick’s Day (March 17th) – I am a little too proud of my Irish heritage. I go a little crazy. Just wait and see…
2. My birthday (March 25th) – Shhh…it’s a big one this year…
3. Samson’s birthday (March 17th) – One of the reasons Samson became our Compassion child was his birthday – I just couldn’t resist! I think God used it as a little extra nudge! He will turn FIVE this month! Happy birthday buddy! We love you!
4. Lots of other birthdays – I have lost track of the number of many friends and family who have March birthdays! Do YOU have a March birthday?!
5. The day we officially started dating (March 17th also!) – Eleven years ago. St. Patrick’s Day. In Ireland. Perfection. My man knows how to create a lasting memory! Love you honey!
6. Spring – Oh sweet spring, how I have missed you.
7. Lion and lamb weather – I actually like the unpredictability of March weather in Nebraska! Go ahead, call me crazy. More than once, we’ve had school canceled on my birthday due to a blizzard, but other years, I’m in skirts and sandals to celebrate!
8. The return of rain – My most favorite part of spring weather – as long as I’m inside watching it out the window!
9. Green everywhere – Between St. Patrick’s Day and the rebirth of nature all around us, I see plenty of my favorite color in March!
10. March Madness – I’m a sports junkie, but I really don’t get into college basketball until March. And then it is super duper fun – lots of games at a time, brackets, upsets, Cinderella stories and so on!
What is your favorite month? Why?
I'm Erin, a wife, boy mom x 3, writer, and runner in Nebraska! I'm excited to share all my favorites relating to faith, family, fashion, and fitness in this space! Enjoy! 
I love March too! My youngest has a birthday on the 19th and mine is on the 28th, so we’re right in there with you. And I agree w your other reasons…tweeted about it this am, in fact!
I love your list, Erin. Sounds like a very exciting month for you indeed! Thanks for sharing your anticipation with us!
March is one of my favorite months as well! It starts off well, with me sharing my birthday (today) with the great state of Nebraska…. and apparently Justin Beiber 😉
I feel like March is the turning of the tide as far as winter is concerned, and spring is my favorite time of year – I dont even mind the wind that always comes with it too.
Have a great tuesday!
My husband and I started dating on March 17 as well. We had our first date 5 years ago this St Patricks Day! We too have a million birthdays in March. We will both be doing lots of celebrating this month. Happy partying!! 🙂
My birthday is in March too–the 10th! It’s my favorite day of the year 🙂
I like your list. I love St. Patrick’s Day and have four family members with March birthdays! It’s a fun month around here! 🙂
Yeah! A month for you to celebrate as well!
I am a March bday also! 25 on the 23rd! 😀
I, too, am SO ready for spring but could care less about March Madness…although if I could ever go in person, that’d be another thing.
In person would be AWESOME! But I do like being able to flip between games on TV…
Our bdays are two days a part – woohoo!
Great reasons for loving March!!
“… the unpredictability of March weather in Nebraska!” Is the NE weather not ALWAYS unpredictable? I’ve used the AC and heater in the same day throughout spring and fall both. I love it.
The 25th is my birthday too 🙂
