"Enjoy Breakfast in Bed...

... this is why winter was invented."

This New Year's Eve as the clock stuck midnight we prayed. 

"for Anna's heart to heal a little bit more this year in our love."
"for Abigail's esophagus to heal a little bit more this year."
"for God to use me in a mighty way as a mother."

On New Year's Day we had a whole day of family games, watched The Snowman, went sledding, and were just together.

I was sad this morning sending them off to school.  So I decided to make breakfast cozy and pretty.  It made me smile on this very cold January morning.

I like fresh starts.  As simple as a fresh start in my kitchen to a fresh start in our family schedule.

So off they went to school. Abigail saw a friend who called out to her. She liked that.

Anna hated that I made her wear her hat. Somehow that makes me smile too.

January, with your sparkling snow on the ground, your bright but cold sunshine... I like you.
