Apparently my method of blogging these days is to go far too long, scroll my phone for pictures, and then recap life in 5 minutes or less. Here goes! Your January update:
After ballet on Saturday mornings, it has become a tradition to take my girls around the corner to a Panera and get them something special for breakfast, and coffee for me! Two weeks ago, Rosie saw some fancy bakery with cherries on top and longed to try them. Last week, I let her and Eowyn each get one--they were so excited! I guess it's the little things. I love being able to spoil a kid or two now and then. My kids are plenty spoiled, but it's special when I get just a couple apart from the group.
Monday was a blizzard, Wednesday and Thursday were the coldest temperatures I remember, though my father claims he's seen worse. Schools were closed, businesses were closed. Lots of basketball was cancelled (yay!). We hunkered down and drank gallons of hot chocolate. (Literally. I buy the milk around here).

Wilma in the schoolroom is still one of our favorite things. Rosie keeps treats in her desk just to share with Wilma when she comes visiting during school time. That alone makes me think every child should be homeschooled. Not that all homeschoolers have fluffy cats on their desks. But doesn't it seem like fun? What distraction? We are very serious academics around here.
I guess that's about it. Snow, cold, and a little school room fun. It's how we Winter!:)
