Our kidlets have been battling colds and coughs on and off for the past few weeks, so getting them out into the snow this past weekend was just what we they needed.
As I sat facing backwards, behind my hubby on the ATV, soaking in the sun and basking in all the glory of their delighted shrieks as they slid, collided and wiped out together – I couldn’t help but think…gosh, God, this must be a little glimpse of how You feel when you see your kids actively soaking in the Son, enjoying being truly alive and just having fun doing life together.
What bliss to watch laughter erupt and hearts collide!
The warm fuzzy thoughts promptly ended, however, when my husband insisted I have a whirl on the sled as he drove IN CIRCLES at an ungodly speed. Apparently more wild-hearted human beings actually find this sort of torture fun.
The frozen pool of ice beneath the fluffy snow made the eventual impact even less enjoyable.
I think I’ll stick to snapping photos next time.
