Moving forward

To be frank, I've been a less than ideal mother this week. Starting Sunday I was laid low by a major respiratory bug, and then Wednesday morning I received the sad news that my Auntie Mary had passed away after a drawn-out battle with cancer.

This afternoon, when the kids were fussing about one thing or another, I pushed us all outside with our play clothes on. We commenced making one friendly-faced snow gal, and by the end she wasn't the only one smiling.

A letter

Dear Clutter,
Although we will try to keep the Christmas spirit all year through, the holidays themselves are over. Consider this your warning.

Hidden pictures anyone?

Darby received his February issue of High Five and immediately commenced looking at the Hidden Pictures page.
