This moment: Snowshoe

Happy Valentine's Day!

Here's a little essay on why I love this holiday!

From Soulemama: A Friday ritual. A single photo - no words - capturing a moment from the week. A simple, special, extraordinary moment. A moment I want to pause, savor and remember.

This moment: Window walking

/

Ok, this week the picture needs some explanation. Dave and I were sitting in the living room discussing fun stuff like furniture rearrangement and carpool logistics; Clara and Alexandra were playing in their room. Suddenly we realized it was a bit too quiet, so we went to check on them. This is what we found:

Yes, Alexandra is walking along the window sill in order to somersault into her bed. While Dave went to get the camera, I lectured the kids on how they are not to do that anymore. Then we had them do it one more time so we could take a picture, then told them firmly that they were not to do that anymore. 

But they were having so much fun, and really, is it that dangerous? Nah. So with a few pillows on the floor, they are having the time of their life in there.
