I feel like I live in the bleachers, watching the game of Pain

It is so heart wrenching to watch people I really, *really* love decide to live against God and then scrape through the consequences, bloodied and filthy.

The life of peace and calmness that He has given us brings with it the guilt of knowing that I don't deserve a single good thing.

*Yippee* - *Woohoo* - *Hurrah* and *Yeay*!

ITS SNOWING!!!

Over and over again.

It just makes my heart happy.

The kids have been outside a good chunk of the day - Jesh just came in, always the last one to quit! As I was helping him out of his SOAKED clothes, I pulled off his snowboots and saw his cute toes staring at me. That's right: the child was wearing NO socks. ~sigh~ I swear I made him put them on the first time he went out! Who knows how long he was sockless...

I got a few cute pics of the pirate snowman that we made - I'll pretend like that was the plan, but it was mostly because we couldn't get the second eye to stay and the creativity just ran wild from there! :~D
