Boy were the kids excited to see it snowing after school today!!! They insisted on helping me with the snow removal, as the flakes continued to fall. That was everyone, except Jack... he was too freezing cold to stay outside for very long at all. Although it was light and fluffy snow, and there wasn't much accumulation... the other kids sure had "snow" much fun shoveling, pulling each other in their sleds, and oh yes, making snow angels right down to the grass! Whenever I question WHY I put up with ND winters, the kids' excitement and smiley faces are all I really need to remind myself, THAT is the reason!
On Tuesday morning I woke up not feeling well at all. I must have caught the stomach flu that's been going around, and boy was I miserable. Mommy stayed home with me for two days and took very good care of me. She even made me chicken noodle soup (which I didn't even take a bite of) and let me drink bubbly water (which I loved). As you can see, I didn't mind napping at all when I was supposed to, or lying on the couch watching all sorts of my favorite Christmas movies. Even my favorite fans, Cassie and Tinkerbell, acted sick right along with me. They were happy to see me come around the second afternoon home when mommy decided to have a Play-Doh party in our PJs'! I miraculously felt much better after that!
