A Reason To Have Kids



Put 'em to work! Kids actually think shoveling is fun! Sadie was extremely happy to receive her very first shovel just so she could help Daddy when it snowed. Which as it turns out, is pretty often. We stayed outside for about 2 hours today and she never tired of shoveling! She was pretty good at it! The only thing that could convince her to come in was the promise of hot cocoa and "little pillows", aka, mini marshmallows. Also, we had a random act of kindness paid to us today. A man from a street over from us saw us digging out and offered to use his snow blower and free both our cars and our upstairs neighbors car. How wonderful was that? We couldn't thank him enough, he saved John's back! Man, spring is going to feel good this year!

I was waiting for Daddy to get whacked with either snow, the shovel, or both! Haaaaaaaa, she's so adorable out there. Keep that video camera going, I love it!
