It doesn’t take much to keep Joshua entertained; just some simple prompts and his active imagination. Today was rainy and windy — pretty stormy. So we just ran some errands and were lazy around the house later on, watching a movie and playing a few games of Chutes and Ladders. The temperature reached 61F today; […]

It was snowing Friday morning, and I snapped a few photos on my phone during my morning commute. I thought they looked better cropped wider, and in black and white. Unfortunately, rain later in the day and tomorrow has washed the snow away.

Joshua’s Chia cat grass has sprouted up rather quickly. I guess that makes it a good plant for kids — little water, light, and work, and quick results. When this is about another inch taller, the cats will get to enjoy it, although one of them already got into it a bit the other night.

Because it’s never too late to celebrate the new year.

The snow that fell this week was very dry and fluffy, due to the extremely cold temperatures. It’s great for skiing, but not so great for sledding (in an inner tube, anyway) or building a snowman. We tried to sled and sunk right into the snow. After packing down a couple of sled trails, we

Joshua was home from school because of the snow, and I was home from work because of vacation, so that meant a morning of watching movies (Fox and the Hound is his new favorite — thanks, Netflix!) and an afternoon of playing in the snow. Although, by afternoon, I mean about an hour, because it

It was a cold and snowy day in New England today. Joshua went back to school and was able to celebrate his birthday with his classmates. I helped by going in to read one of his favorite stories, Click Clack Moo, and he was asked to bring in five of his favorite things (all stuffed
