Woke up this morning to a beautiful blanket of snow covering the yard. I was getting depressed about it at first because snow meant one thing to me this morning...."oh no! we're going to be stuck in the house all day!" I was way wrong. Noah and Josh, my 2 oldest boys have been involved in some pretty hard core snow ball fights and right after their fingers just couldn't take the cold anymore they came in for some of mama's loco hot cocoa. mmm so yummy.
It has been difficult for me to not be able to drive my car and take my kids places, even to go grocery shopping. But in a way I feel like I'm being humbled right now. I took for granted having a car and being able to drive wherever I wanted and do whatever I wanted, now I'm confined to my apartment and the park and river across the street. Now that it's getting colder and snowier I 'm starting to feel like I need my car again. I know I will be able to drive it again soon so I need to just be grateful that I'm even able to play with my kids outside in the snow, hear them laugh, give them hugs and kisses, make cookies and drink mama's favorite loco hot cocoa together....I thank God that I am able to do these things in life.
Marshmallows and Cocoa! Stacie
