Hey, hey World! Ok, I am feeling a bit ambitious today. I atttempted to run the many errands I had this Monday morning. I enlisted the co-op to watch my children and I set out. I sat in traffic for 20 minutes and I only traveled ONE block! I failed to notice during my preparations for conquering this Monday that there were inches of snow on the ground and inches falling each hour! I made a U-turn, picked up my children, and went home to conquer nap and luch time! So much for errands (they are way over-rated)!

I love stormy days... they put everything into perspective. And thus I say, "Hey, hey World!" Because you gave us snow and we built snowmen, made lemonade snowcones (pink lemonade), and gave ourselves a great reason to snuggle and have hot chocolate! I am always amazed how my expectations and attitude can change the entire day. I am reading a book, Christ-like Parenting. It is slowly changing my expectations and my awareness of my attitude. I have to re-read every chapter two or three times before my brain even understands the concepts I am reading. Thank goodness for the dictionary and great principles!
