Hey kids! Guess what????


God made snow!!
There is nothing like a child experiencing God's beauty. Today is Thursday and both of the kids go to school this day. Jacob gets out a little earlier than Emma, but I snuck her out at the same time and then we played. God is amazing. His creations are unmatchable. The looks on my sweet kid's faces as they joyfully take in His creation is priceless. When we got home it was still slushy outside, not really snow at all. Then, a little later, Emma decided to open the blinds and there it was! Huge flakes quickly falling to make the smooth blanket that would soon cover our yards.
So we all dressed in layers of unmatched clothes. I KNEW it would pay off to purchase those bibs from Target last spring! And I think I got them for a mere $3!! ALWAYS praise Him for a good bargain:)
Jacob refused to go outside without his cowboy boots. They are a recent obsession. Emma could not find the match to her left mitten. She also couldn't find the match for her right glove. Oposites attract, right?
We had fun. Pure joy. He is good. He was seen in a new and different way today through the eyes of my children. It was amazing to be a part of God revealing Himself to my Emma and Jacob.

I hope there is more tomorrow!!

I had to drive down the street honking just to get Hunter to stop playing and get in the car. It was a blast, he's really stretching is independance right now and it's cute and fun. I love to see the transformation so clearly that he's actually a little boy now! Snow is a fun little reminder of why we don't want to move up north,

That is so fun! We didn't get that much snow but were still able to make a snowman.
