an arctic blast.

The TV news has been calling this winter storm an Arctic Blast. School has been out for 4 days and we in the valley don't know what to do with ourselves. Once I got over the fear of being stuck indoors for days on end, I've realized that both of my kids seem to be thriving on the forced slower pace. The Mister has gotten himself into this nice little groove of napping, something I wouldn't have even considered trying to regulate yet. How I've spent my snow days: staring at this face. We've also baked, we've played games, we've had hot chocolate parties. We've done gymnastics on the couch. And the girl couldn't be more content.
