Cabin Fever
Wednesday, December 31st, 2014From Wednesday Mom – Janelle:
It has been raining here for over a week. Today was the first glimpse of sunshine we have had in days. We had over 6 inches of rain locally and several tornadoes in the area. While we avoided the worst of the weather, it has kept our family confined to the indoors for too long.
Christmas day was wonderful, with gifts, food, and family. Nobody seemed to mind the rain. The boys kept busy with new Legos and toys. It ‘s the days that followed; we played board games as a family, but as time wore on, the rain continued. I did my best to keep the boys entertained. The kids are still watching DVR’d Christmas specials a week after Christmas.
Finally after over a week inside, the weather broke today. The boys grabbed their “outside” toys and ran into the still muddy yard. I joined them because I think I needed to get out of the house too. I think I enjoy the sunshine even more than my children. It is cold outside but the sunshine is refreshing. We are going to go outside again tomorrow for as long as we can, especially because there is even more rain in the forecast later this week. I’m hoping the New Year brings many sunny days with it.
Cheers to a happy and healthy 2015!
