Life!

This week has been one of mundane, everyday-life moments, which are pleasant in their own right!  Abigail and I are both on antibiotics and are feeling much better.  The snow is mostly melted, although we still have some in the shaded areas of the yard and the rain barrels are still solid ice.  Yesterday's low 40s felt downright balmy after our recent cold snap!

We are busy doing school and enjoying being back into the regular routine after the harried pace of December.  Mindy enjoys school, too; she likes that we all gather in one place so that she can be by all of us for her morning nap.  Once she's done walking on the kids' desks, batting their pencils, and sitting on their papers, she settles in on this bookshelf by my desk...it gets morning sunshine and has a great view of our high-traffic birdfeeders.  She naps, stretches, naps, takes a bath, and naps again.  Ah, life!
