Cold Cheek Cure

Things here at our house have been all bundled-up, cozy, and somewhat confined with the newborn. Although I've been doing some Christmas activities with the kids, they've still been a bit out of sorts. (Like major fit throwing, disobedient, and grouchy.) When I ran out to get the mail in the frigid weather, they begged to come out. Fine then. No time to argue with how miserable and cold they'd be.

Brother headed out way under dressed and I bundled Sissy a little better. When we got outside Brother had already found the snow shovel and employed himself in the snow removal business. He said, "It feels good, like service!" Despite the cold air and relatively short stay outside, their cheeks were nice and rosy.The cold, crisp air did something for them and for me. We climbed back inside and ordered up a nice batch of hot chocolate in the CocoaMotion. Mmmmm Good.
