Fall Fun
Sometimes I can be a bit of a bear.
Not just a momma bear, with three very cute little cubs, but a grumpy just-wanna-hibernate-until-spring kind of bear.
Thursday afternoon I was that bear.
There was nothing I wanted to do more than curl up under a blanket and have a nap on the couch.
However, there were those cute little cubs I mentioned. The baby one had just woken up, way too soon, from his afternoon nap. I was grumping to the boys, directing them to remove the dang-nabbed rocks (the really cute rocks they’d decorated like monsters) from the house and put them outside in the freezing and inhospitable cold. I snugged up the blanket further as they went to do as I’d commanded, the cold breeze finding its way into my den. After a minute listening to their happy chatter as they moved their little rock friends, I decided that the breeze wasn’t so bad. Not freezing, anyway. Maybe brisk. And I thought I might have sensed some sunshine out there. And anyway, the baby had escaped and I should probably be somewhat responsible and make sure he at least stayed off the road. So I shook myself out of my cozy den…
…and I was so very glad I did…
We spent the afternoon playing and colouring (yes, I did too):
Sooooo much better than den-ing up and the dark cave:
I got in some cute fall photo-ops:
And Giant made games for us to play:
Ettin drew almost our entire extended family:
Ettin and Galoot giggled non-stop playing together with the stroller:
Thank you for dragging me out of the cave, little cubs, and letting a bit of sun shine warm up this momma’s heart.
