{Parenting is…} finding humor

1.22.14

when your four-year-old plays in the snow in the beginning of a big snow storm, using your snow shovel as a toy, and then drops it somewhere in the yard where about 8″ of snow buries it, leaving you to play a fun game of hide-and-seek in the 1 degree weather.

Of course, the humor is much easier to find than the shovel, especially when you’re in a warm kitchen brewing coffee in your pajamas still.

He’s a good man.

Hello

I overthink everything. This blog is a prime example. Make yourself a cup of coffee and sit down for a read. Actually, make that a pot of coffee. There’s a lot of overthinking here.
