The First Snow Fall

I made the comment to someone the other day about how mild winter has been for us.  I spoke a little too soon though because the snow is falling hard right now.

I'm not one who enjoys playing in snow and I don't like the inconvenience it can cause, but I do love the cozy feeling I get watching it fall.  I open the curtains in each room and stop and stare out for a few minutes every time I pass a window.

There's just something about falling snow that forces me to reflect, be still, and be thankful for everything that I have.

I often feel that my dreams are bigger than myself but as the snow falls I don't worry much about that.  I just want to take time for gratitude, lie near a window with a cup of tea, a good book, and listen to my boys play nearby.

Have a beautiful day :-)
