Confessions of a Winter Wimp!

So today we started back to swim lessons at 4:30pm every Wednesday. The kids were glad to get back to it and meet their new teacher. They both moved up a level. Well, they were having a great time until it was time to get out. The wind was blowing and it was a blustery 69 degrees. My denim jacket wasn't even keeping me warm! The poor kids turned blue upon stepping out of the pool! I wrapped them up in a towel and rushed them off to get dry clothes on. In the car Mason asked for the heat to be turned on and we blew the heat full blast for a few minutes while he covered up with a fleece blanket (the blanket has been in the car for the last week because Kenzie "freezes" on the way to school in the morning).
So those of you hunkered down in your midwest snowstorm this week take consolation in the fact that at least you can handle it! You are brave and worthy of my admiration! I only ask that when we move back you have sympathy and don't make too much fun of us! :)

Other than the "cold" we are doing just fine. Bob has been in California at a conference and will return Friday. We all are looking forward that!

One more story before I go. God has such a funny sense of humor sometimes. When we got home tonight it was dark and the kids were freaking out about a moth on the screen door. Kenzie didn't want to go in because she was too scared of it and Mason wasn't much better. I came just short of making fun, but did tell them to get over the tiny moth and go inside. Goodness, moths don't bite! Well, later when I went out to feed the bunny there was this gigantic, at least 5 inch long, moth out in the porch. When I opened the door it started flying around my head and freaked me out! I shut the door and really didn't want to go back out, but finally worked up the nerve. The thing was huge! Yes, I learned my lesson!

Anyway, sorry no pictures. Maybe next time. :)
