about moving those many years ago. Yep, used to be in Michigan and the snow on the east coast the last couple of days makes me really glad to be living in the eastern desert of Washington. It is beautiful. I remember many crisp winter nights when the snow glistened in the streetlights, the bright and lovely coating after a snowfall, the quiet of freshly fallen snow. But I love to love it from a distance now. The shoveling, the stuck cars, the slick roads, the inconvenience are things I just don't care to experience any more.
Yesterday we had a Valentine's Carnival for the kids at church. It was a blast to watch the little ones enjoy themselves so much. There was face painting, cupcake decorating, a fish pond, a penny toss, and "make your own" valentines. At times, it was hard to tell whether the kids or the adults were having the most fun--especially around the card making table! I particularly enjoyed playing with the plastic frogs that "jump" when you press on their butts. Doesn't take much to amuse me some days. And a bit of frivolity is a good thing as
life goes on.
