It is not my favorite season - I know people assume everyone in a cold-weather state loves the snow, but it is just not true, and especially not at this time of year. I have had several people comment to me about this in the last couple weeks - totally separate from one another - that they are just dragging lately. I think it is symptomatic of mid-February. The holidays are over, January is over, and I think people are getting sick of winter. It is the time of year when you think spring must be coming soon, yet the Win*ter Olym*pics just started!
But I am trying to make the best of it and pass on good winter vibes to the innocent. This brings me to last Wednesday - I am home on Wednesdays with Z*oe, L*ily, and my niece, A*ugust. While L slept in the morning, I took the girls out to play in the snow. We sucked on icicles, wrote in the snow, made snow angels, and went down the slides... sort of.
It was great fun and it helped me to remember that even winter can be fun. I am going to use these memories to help me get through the rest of winter!

Jen, Looks like a fun time was had by all :) I like the drawings in the snow. Every once in a while we need to relive our childhood and I am sure that the girls really enjoyed having you outside with them playing in the snow.
