Snowy Day
I love a good storm--snowstorm, thunderstorm, hurricane--when nature is doing something neat, I want to be out in it. My honey thinks I'm silly, but I can't help myself. I'm so drawn to it. So yesterday afternoon he offered to watch the girls while I headed out skiing for the first time this year. Whoopee! It was snowing hard and a little windy, but all the better I say. It felt so good to exercise, and there was no one else out, so even in the middle of town, it felt adventurous and thrilling. I cruised (ok maybe not the right description for my skiing skills) around the Standpipe and park and back home--not a real long time but very rejuvenating none the less. A good quiet time to think and pray. For that short time, I am not a mommy. I am a little girl again playing in the snow without a care in the world. And when I return I'm ready to snuggle my wee ones again and eager for my radiators and hot cocoa.
Thanks Hon!
