With spring just around the corner I've been contemplating why I have such a hard time with the winter season. I've gotta figure out how to be happy in cold temperatures one day, cuz EVENTUALLY we will be moving back to frigid Northern Utah. So here's my attempt to look on the bright side with my winter pros and cons:
Pro: Because of the need for hats, coats, gloves, and boots, I don't actually have to dress my children or fix their hair.
Con: We're always late because it takes me twenty minutes to equip everyone for an Arctic exploration every time we leave the house.
Con: Dry, itchy skin.
Pro: LONG lavender scented baths with skin-soothing baking soda.
Pro: Snowmen, snow angels, snow forts, and snow fun.
Con: Snowsuits, hats, gloves, boots, snow, and mud all over the floor.
Pro: Long winter naps
Con: Uhh... no con...
Pro: Warm comfort food- soups, stews, casseroles, hot cocoa...mmmmm...
Con: Very depressing blubber pockets throughout my body
(I'm not going to share pictures of my blubber... I know you're disappointed)
Con: It's COLD!
Pro: Lots of family snuggle time.

You guys have so much more snow than we do! crazy! PS are you going to come up and visit us one last time before you leave VA?
Perfectly said, as usual. I love your humor. And just for the record, I see no fat pockets on you. And I would know, I look for them on others so that I can feel better about mine. ;)

FAT POCKETS???? HA! And I am disappointed that there is no proof! ;) Perfectly said...and I love the "Con: uh...no con..." picture-too cute!
Super cute post. And does baking soda really sooth dry skin??? Annie has eczema really bad, should I try that?
