PJ Days

For the better part of the last week, we've spent most of the days in our pajamas.

Nowhere to go, rainy days and the sniffles have made it seem all the more fitting.

Some would call it laziness; I see it as a time to slow down and enjoy the warmth of home.

We've worked on art projects, read, watched movies, and drank a lot of  hot cocoa.

Not being in a constant rush makes me calmer, gentler and more willing to go along with whatever the children have in mind.

So much is said about the dog days of summer, but there's a welcome feeling that accompanies the cold days of winter in our house. If it would just get cold enough to build a fire, that would be bliss.
