Newspaper and Snow Angels

Children are the most creative creatures on the planet!!

Tumbled out of bed this morning to ready myself for another day in the trenches only to find a blanket of freaking snow on the ground. Grrr.....still not a fan of the snow. Late night with the kiddies and let me tell you...it was a chore just getting up. It's days like this that I want to snuggle under the blankets and watch the tv with 6 kiddies. Shoveling snow off the driveway and the car is not enjoyment to me :p

When I walked out the door to my car I got the biggest shock! There was newspaper all over the windows of my car and someone had shoveled the driveway behind the car. Upon further inspection I noticed hearts drawn into the snow on my driver side window and the words "We Love You". On the un-shoveled portion of the driveway, 5 and a half snow angels plain as day imprinted in the white fluff. Lord in heaven I love my teenage daughters and my nieces and nephew...

My surprise was renewed when I removed the newspaper to discover that I didn't have to scrape the windshield. The paper had protected it from the snow and ice. WOW!!! When I talked to them on break they were soooooooo excited to find out it had worked. "It's something daddy taught us" they chirped in my ear. God love my brother...he's been gone a year and still watches over our family. Our mighty protector above...

I love you brother....
