Waking up to a world of white, everything snow covered whispers, "Shhhhh, be quiet, slow down, rest."
That's just what I did, as Eden slept, and Emmett played, I admired the sight out the back door while I sipped on my cinnamon coffee and read my devotional. Such beautiful things that God of ours created. Snow days are such a reminder of that.
We had such a fun day yesterday staying in our comfy clothes, painting snow in the kitchen, eating snow ice cream, sledding, attempting to build a snowman, making snow angels, drinking "warm chocolate" and hot coffee, and taking a long nap. (Yes, both kids napped at the same time and this momma did too.) It. was. glorious. Took the time to make a yummy dinner, Mexcian stuffed peppers for me and chili cornbread casserole for Eden and daddy. Even got a little bit of scrapbooking and house cleaning done, and tied up some loose ends for Emmett's birthday party. It was a perfect, yet simple day. Just the way I like it.
Snow days are for recharging and resting, and I am so thankful that we had a day to do just that. Now I'm ready to take on another busy day of teacher-mom life that I love.... almost as much as a good snow day. Yes, I'm ready to take on today..........right after I finish my coffee.
