Our Snowy Day

We received over a foot of snow today and it continues to snow heavily outside. Daddy took Grace for a sled ride this afternoon while Jack & I watched the snowflakes fall from the warmth of our house. Prior to going on her sled ride Grace chose the perfect book to read called The Snowy Day by Ezra Jack Keats. In this book a little boy named Peter finds a stick and uses it to make a track in the snow. Grace followed Peter's lead today and made her own stick track in the snow too!

Oh, boy, we only received about a few inches of new fluffy snow. It looks like you got it all this time. I love "The Snowy Day" just like Grace. I am continually stunned by all that Grace learns and absorbs from books! She looks super cute all bundled up for her sled ride. You do live in a great place to find perfect sticks.
Love, Maddy

Grace, you are definitely an outdoor Mainer. Look at you all bundled up in the cold, snowy and weather, enjoying it all. Was Daddy having fun too? Was he your "sled dog"?
Rose and Memere have been reading "The Snowy Day" too. I think that we'll all be reading it a lot this winter.
We love you, Grace.

Got Gracie, Jack & Eve?
