chillin with old man winter

Oh, the weather outside is frightful....
But the fire is so delightful...

Well, in my mind it's wonderfully delightful.
Especially on this chilly 11 degree morning. 
Makes you not even want to crawl out of bed. 

But today is a glorious day, despite the cold. 
The ground, covered with frozen snow,
with little snippets of color and past life showing through.

The promise of a better today.
Knowing that today is reserved for
just me and my hubby.

A day with no chaos.  No struggles. 
No yelling, screaming, fighting. 
No toys to trip over.  No struggles with naptime.
A free day    
To do errands.  To read.  To wrap presents.
To catch our breath so we can do it all over again on Monday.

Have a wonderful day!
