The Longest Winter

Soooo much snow! We cannot wait to be able to play outside again. Because we live by the ocean, it's often too windy out to enjoy playing outside this time of the year, and we are going stir-crazy! With all that unused energy, it's hard to sit still and focus on school. Right now we are doing a lot of what I call "track school" where Henry runs a circuit through our little house, while I read aloud from a book, ask him to answer math questions, or help him memorize Bible verses or poems. School has also been hard because Henry's little sister has been going through a demanding phase. She seems to want to be physically touching me at every moment of the day. I am looking forward to the time when we can spend an hour or two at the playground again!
