Winter has finally come, it even snowed a little this morning. It's been nice to have such warm weather but I am ready for the cold. The girls and Peter have been getting their winter gear on and they head out every weekend morning on a walk to the water. Even if it is raining. They also do lots of ice skating. The girls can go around the rink on their own now. It's so cute they try to walk on the ice. I sit and watch with baby Hazel hoping they don't fall on their bottom but they almost always do and that's cute too.
This week has been a whirlwind. There was the morning I woke up early to make sure all the kids lunches were packed first thing so we weren't late to school only to have Portia find them, unpack them and feed them to the dog. There was the morning I thought I had found a reliable car pool only to realize they had probably forgotten Zelda when no one had come 3 minutes before school was supposed to start. There was the morning Portia had a momentous tantrum and refused to walk Zelda to school and I had to have the crossing guard watch her while I took Zelda to her classroom. I have also discovered that if you look like you are struggling in the morning some nice parent may take pity on you and offer to pick up your kids that afternoon. I just need to make sure they remember. :)
