Hello Winter!

We, like a lot of other people in the country, are having a blizzard here today, and that makes me pretty happy.  I'm happy because Ryan didn't have to go into work today, and we kept our power on all day.  Blizzards are fun when those two things work out.  The only downside is the winds were so incredibly strong, and we didn't feel we could get the boys outside today.  Three boys cooped up in a house ALL day makes for a very cranky dinner time, which resulted in a very early bedtime, so maybe that part wasn't all bad.  Final snow count today: 12 inches.



Funny story about this screened window.  Clayton was talking to Aunt Meg on the phone this morning.  He walked over to this window, and I heard him tell Meghan, "A bunch of birds were flying around outside (true, poor birds), and they pooped all over our window (false)."  Nice.

One slight problem will need to be addressed in the morning.  Does Clayton have an ear infection?  It's definitely a possibility.  I'm almost sure our pediatrician won't be open (Ryan's not working either), so there will be the matter of locating a doctor (preferably one who won't flip out about his heart condition) and pharmacy that are open, as well as actually driving to them.  Please pray for a miraculous healing tonight.  If all fails, I could put some garlic in there.  I have a friend who swears by it.  I don't know.  Tylenol seemed to help a little tonight.

Hope you're keeping warm wherever you are.
