Love

Our job is to love others without stopping to inquire whether or not they are worthy.
That is not our business and, in fact, it is nobody's business.
What we are asked to do is to love, and this love itself will render both ourselves and our neighbors worthy if anything can.

Thomas Merton (1915 - 1968)

White Christmas

There was some admiring of Grandma Vicki's digital picture frame.

And poses with the kids in front of the Christmas tree with Chloe...

and Owen before throwing on winter coats to play in the snow outside.

How did we not notice that Chloe stayed in her pajamas when going out in the cold?

With no gloves?

It was hard working pushing around snowballs bigger than themselves.


The snow was perfect for rolling into snowmen balls, but it used up all of the snow in our front yard.  Although one of them did break in half.

It was nice seeing the kids work together as a team to roll the biggest balls up the hill together.

Owen had fun catching snowflakes.

Owen found pine nuggets for eyes, a baby carrot for a nose and shiny black rocks inside the house to use for the smile.  They were so proud of their snowman.

This was the first white Christmas we have had together in years.  Glad the kids were old enough to remember this rare occurrence!
