Thankful Thursdays: Snow!!

Dear Snow:

Not only are you beautiful, but you force us all to do something we often neglect: rest. You make us stay home, and play. You cause us to sit inside, all bundled up, reflecting on what's important. You allow us to drink some of our favorite beverages, like hot coffee and red wine, with the excuse of "staying warm". 

This letter is short and sweet, but we just wanted to say a quick thank you. For allowing us to stop for a moment. For allowing many of us to work from the comfort of our couches in our favorite pajamas. And for bringing fun, camaraderie, playfulness, and joy to our neighborhoods. 

We also wanted to make sure to write this while you are still loved, and before we begin complaining about the cold, and the salt, and the make-up days at school.

So thank you, for your beauty, and your ability to make us stop and take notice.
 
We each move snow in our own unique way. 


His servant heart is even more handsome than he is. He shoveled out so many neighbors! 
Our snow couple. The gentleman's beard is a bit of a different color here. Perhaps because it's a wine beard?
