Okay, show of hands. Who was up past midnight on bunny duty last night? Who has children who were up at 6:35am, an hour earlier than normal, today? Who has an especially spunky 4 year old who found the Easter baskets before finishing the elaborate scavenger hunt mommy the Easter Bunny put together while on bunny duty after midnight last night? Who has a child who managed to stuff handfuls of candy in their mouth before 7am, was running through the house naked except for the new pair of light up sneakers by 8am, and had splashed a whole tub full of water on the bathroom floor by 9am?

But even though it looks like I may be having an extra glass of wine tonight, I will go to bed a happy mama because all day long I have listened to the (shrieking) laughter of my girls. Which means they are happy. And on days like today, it really is the little things that count.

Dear Kitty,
Your April Fool’s joke wasn’t so funny.
Love,
Jenn

Get it? Snow = so? Ha ha. I kill myself. Ask anyone who has hung out with me for any length of time and they will tell you I love elementary kid jokes. (Who remembers ‘what’s brown and sticky?’) Sorry, I think this super long winter has finally gotten to me.

Anyway, I hope this is the very last set of snowy family photos I post until December rolls around. It’s been really nice, but I’m a wee bit over winter and so ready for spring. But I couldn’t have asked for a more fun family to play in the snow with me. We had such a good time walking the trails, sledding, making snow angles and having a snowball fight. I love it when a family can really play together and I think the fun this family has shines through. Thank you so much to the H. family for being adventurous and braving the freezing temperatures for me!

And for those of you who did not know me in college, the answer to the joke asking what is brown and sticky is…..

drum roll please….

A stick!!  Ha ha! Ha ha!

I just wanted to do a quick post and say Merry Christmas! Thank you to all my amazing clients, friends and family who helped support me this year. So, from our little family to yours: Merry Christmas!!
