It's cold outside...
Snow has fallen...
There's no Lacrosse game today...
And we're here...
peacefully stranded at home by the fire...
At least from where I SIT that is my perspective on the situation.
To my left, this is happening...
...and she is thinking otherwise...
She's tired of being home
and
SURPRISE!
would rather go to the mall...
To my right, THIS is happening
he is in his own contented-obliviousness
Behind me....
way down that way, where Scarlett is snoring around the corner
sweet, sweet silence...
Speaking of Scarlett...
This happened this morning
In the window of the sunroom,
a burst of color is feasting
No rest for drummers, apparently...
This is the kind of day mothers dream of...
"We have stopped for a moment to encounter each other, to meet,
to love, to share. This is a precious moment, but it is transient.
It is a little parenthesis in eternity. If we share with caring,
lightheartedness, and love, we will create abundance and joy
for each other. And then this moment will have been worthwhile."
Deepak Chopra

I love that kind of day too.
Tim is working, Lindsay is at the store, and Emily just left to go shopping for a bit with a friend - but she did shovel the whole driveway by herself...
I like that quote too, but was surprised to see who said it!
