Today brings the shortest day of the year and the official beginning of winter. Once again I breathe a huge sigh of relief, as although I enjoy cool weather and cosy evenings in their place, I do feel much better knowing that today was as short as a day could be here. Now we will begin that earthly tilt toward longer days.... waking up to sunshine, having daylight when daddy get's home, playing outside a leeetle longer..... all of that. Ahhh.
L has been so cooped up lately. I think he really needs some running around time that he just isn't getting during these colder days. His behaviour has been alternating between Adorable and Ninja. It seems like there is very little middle ground between those two personalities either.
K had book club today, we also worked on sewing for her friends, and planned more baking for tommorow. Mmmmm.
I miss my family at this time of the year, and hope that one Christmas in the near future we can plan a big shindig! We nearly pulled it off last year, with all the kids together! We just missed Mum and Dad!
We wish you all a Blessed Christmas and Joyful New Year.
