Beautiful....and oh so cold. But the sun was shining to make a sparkle-y kind of silver. I love snow days (I know it's crazy). We had breakfast, while my dear husband constructed a warm fire to make the house as cozy as can be; before he left for work. A nice slow pace for the school day in front of a blazing fire.
I know it's cold, and the snow can be a nuisance, but I've attempted to get some enjoyment out of this long-stretched winter--a new and not so easy task for me.
After all, God created it for a reason, it is beautiful...why not savor the beauty before us. A lovely white and silver world...for a season...is a blessing. It's covers the dead brown trees and grass. It hides the mud under it's sheath of silvery white. It makes the morning feel as new as a gift from a beloved. It holds off the dirt and grime of the thaw, until the green begins to bloom anew.
So for today...while I long for the soft colors of a new season...I'll savor the beauty of this one....
