We woke this morning to discover that it was snowing and decided it was a perfect day to embrace winter and head out for a hike.
We bundled up the boys in snowsuits and hats and mittens and then loaded them into sled and backpack and journeyed into the white silence of the woods. It was a perfect day for hiking. The air was cold, but fresh - standing in stark contrast to our last several months in India. A fresh clean blanket of snow covered the ground and the trees. The woods were quiet except for the sounds of boots and sled on snow and our contented chatter. The boys rode like kings, happy and warm, undaunted by cold or work. All of us enjoying the simple bliss of being outdoors and the cocoa and hot coffee to come.
