Warm Winter Weather

Yesterday we came home from a two-hour visit to our favorite nearby park and Joshua didn't even want to go inside. So while he used this to do this . . . I read this and sat here.
Part of me loves a little warm winter weather if it comes a day at a time. That part of me says "I'll take it" and quickly comes up with a list of possibilities for the day. (On yesterday's list were "read outside", "go to the beach", "take Joshua to the park", "go for a long walk." We did three of the four.) But another part of me worries about warming trends and makes it hard to embrace the brief respite from icy winds. Luckily I spent more time yesterday paying attention to the aforementioned part of my psyche. So here's to a nice day in the dead of winter! I hope you have one soon, too.

Sounds like your you guys are doing well. By the way about the words of wisdom. Do not treat people like dirt. That is my words of wisdom for you. I hope you are doing well.

I would like some warm weather right now when I have to be up in the middle of the night with Victoria. Although I'm sure my mom would like it more than me :)

That sounds like a wonderful day. Newsweek is one of my favorite reads these days as well.

I didn't realize it got warm enough for a park day in NJ!

We really enjoyed that warm spell up here as well. Quite unusual for this time of year. We'll take it though!

Are you on the six week countdown yet? We're sure getting excited to meet your new little ones!
