peace

we're supposed to get a big snowfall today and tonight. something like 6-10 inches. jeff is in nyc for a bachelor party and they are calling for blizzard conditions. ha. he emailed me to let me know that he'd be home tomorrow even if he had to walk home (knowing i would trapped in the house with two kids and a puppy).

but i'm glad the storm is coming. it forces me to slow down and just enjoy the kids. we put our jackets on over our pajamas this morning and went through the mcdonalds drive-thru to pick up breakfast. i let the kids bring their blankies downstairs (strict blankie rule: they stay in their rooms and are for naps/nighttime only) and sit on the couch to watch 'toy story 2'. we might pop popcorn later or make a fort. it doesn't really matter. i'm just enjoying the respite from my normal busy, rushing around (for what???) life.

let it snow.
