SNOW!!

We got some snow yesterday and the kids enjoyed it for a while, until their mittens got wet and they were cold. It really was beautiful, but Im glad it only lasted a day :) I am SOOOOO ready for warmer weather!

This is what they did for about 10 min. as soon as we got home.

Valentine's Party

Carter's class had thier party yesterday right as the snow was really coming down and as soon as they announced they were closing the schools early. So, they ate their pizza and heart shaped donuts quickly and we rounded up ALL of our goodys from his friends and teacher and headed home to play in the snow.

The Things That Boy Says

Just wanted to post a couple things Carter said that I dont want to forget. This was our conversation yesterday....

C- Can I take my own snack to school today?
M - Sure, why?
C- I just dont feel like our school snacks are healthy and I want to be healthy.
M- Ummm, ok (If you know Carter then you know carbs and sugar are main staples to his diet)-
C- Can we stop by Publix and get some bananas?
M - Sure

Later that afternoon, when I pick him up...

C- (Pouting) Why did you make me take a banana today?
M- I didnt make you, that was your choice
C- Well, today we had cheese balls for snack and thats my favorite and I had to eat that stinkin banana....LOL

Guess his quest to be healthy (have no idea where that came from)backfired on him.

On a more serious note. Tonight when we said our prayers we asked Jesus to bring Joseph home safely from the basketball game he went to and when we were done, Carter started crying and said "What if Jesus doesn't bring daddy home safely?" At that moment I felt my heart sank. He asked me about 3 times and I did not know how to answer him, so I distracted him with a book. My heart truly goes out to single parents of young children.
