We were surprised with a decent snow (for our neck of the woods) this morning!  It’s a sweet reminder to me that God is always working, even while we’re sleeping, covering the old with something new, giving us the gift of a fresh start and new mercies every morning.  I’m grateful for the delight of snow on this otherwise ordinary Tuesday.  Though we’re still battling some sniffly noses and aching ears over here (please, germs, go away!), we couldn’t pass up the opportunity to get out for a little bit and play in it!

For those of you to whom it’s relevant, happy snow day!

the reason of God

though our sins be as scarlet,
they shall be white as snow;
though they are red like crimson,
they shall be as wool.
isa. 1:18

in His sight, covered in the precious blood of Jesus, you are clean.  you are spotless.  stand in that rest alone this weekend!

we woke up to the welcomed surprise of ice & snow!  up on this mountain, it means we are staying in, and that means daddy is staying home!  the kids didn’t waste a minute:

and as quickly as we could, we bundled up, snotty noses and all, for a walk in the dusting of snow before it all melted away (which it did, pretty much by the end of our walk).

happy girl in the littlest bit of snow!

our hearts are full and thankful even for the simple joy of being all together today and seeing snow falling.  i hope everyone has a lovely thanksgiving tomorrow!
