There are Things I Love

There are things I love about this time of year.  Things that make me wish we had snow more often.  There are of course other things that make me wish to be on a beach in a very warm and tropical place!

*********************************************************************************

::i love the piles of boots by the door and the racks of mitts and coats in the "drying" room (aka the boiler room)::

::i love seeing the boys have fun adventures in the snow, building miniature villages and what not::

::i love how even at 5pm it is still light out with all this white stuff reflecting the little light that is left::

::i love planning what we'll all eat for dinner on these cold days::

*********************************************************************************

::i do not like the cold puddles of melting snow that i step on with my stocking feet::

::i do not like having summer tires on my car::

::i do not like having to bundle and unbundle the kids several times in an hour for pee breaks etc::

::i do not like being cold .... cold toes and cold fingers!  Mama's always have to take off their nice warm mitts to help those wee ones!::

*********************************************************************************

All in all though we are quite enjoying our brief time spent in a white winter wonderland.  The rest of Canada has had quite a lot more to complain about I'd say!  The school's are closed today so we'll be having more fun in the snow .... just wished I'd cleaned up the poop in the backyard, but at least we have a great front yard!







::yesterday's snow play was made possible by GG, who picked us all up and drove us to get proper snow boots and pants, thanks so much Mom::
