The Day I Was Grateful for Snow

The farmer's almanac lies.  That's all I can say.  The farmer said we'd get tons of snow already this year, but it only just arrived today.  But it's here, and for that I am grateful.

We bundled the boys up for a jaunt in the snow.  They sledded and ran through the powder for 30-minutes then called it quits.  It took 15-minutes to get them ready!  Still, I'm glad they enjoyed themselves.

I love how the snow makes the world seem so fresh and new.  A white blanket of snow that covers all the dead leaves is just so beautiful.  It reminds me of baptism and repentance.

So, here's to powder.

Here's to a making anew.

And here's to a Better Mommy Me.
