Ok, so I've gotten a bit behind on this blog. Actually, I've gotten a bit behind on everything. My personal life has been taking a toll on me...and now it's time to get back on track!
Anyways.....
Today was the first day we have been able to play out in the snow! It was only the three oldest kids (the rest were napping), but that worked out ok as we need some retraining on how to get ready to play outside in the snow. They had a good time though!
Aiden instructed everyone on how to make snow angels: (1) Lay down in the snow; (2)Move your arms like this (Bev: Hey, Aiden, do you need to move your legs, too? Aiden: Oh yeah!). (3)Before you get up, look in the sky for the shapes in the clouds.
Step 3 got me thinking. With all the craziness that has been in my life, and a lot of yours, in the last few weeks, and the stress and craziness that will be created by all the upcoming holidays....maybe we all just need to remember to stop to look for the shapes in the clouds, smell the roses, or whatever works in your life.
I think I should make that my new motto.
