what?! I'm ready now!

[MamaZena]

Only half way through winter?!  I am so done with risking my life on the crappy roads, cold fingers/toes/nose, bundling up kids, pulling a sled, staying inside, warming up and brushing off the car, arguing and forcing my daughter to finish her hockey season, sitting in the cold arena, gloomy days, slush, snow and ice!

But I don't really have a choice do I?

So I will try to embrace the season....maybe go flying down a hill or two, hold on to my kids and laugh.  Start planning my garden.  Go skating.  Marvel at the dancing snowflakes and sparkling white ground as if I'm seeing it through my children's eyes.  Try to remember when winter was joyful and not full of work.

I am looking forward to EVERY part of spring!!!!!!

and I still can't believe it's only half gone
