It's SNOWING.....AGAIN!!!! I love the snow, especially when it means no-school, as I've always loved having the kids home on a snow day. But, this one started at around 1pm and it's going strong at 2:30. Plus, it's MARCH and time for spring! Yesterday it was in the 60s and Steven and I just loved seeing the kids out playing late on our first day of daylight savings time. It's days like yesterday that I think we appreciate much more than we did before Nicholas' diagnosis. Steven and I sat on the front step last night just enjoying the kids' voices as they came back from checking out a deer in a neighbor's yard.
We feel so very lucky that both children are thoroughly enjoying their childhood and both have adjusted so beautifully to our new home and town.
So, while I am really ready for spring, I eagerly await the childrens safe arrival home from school and wouldn't be disappointed if I could watch them playing in the snow this afternoon!
We are BLESSED.
