Yesterday was the Dr. Martin Luther King holiday. The children were home from school and I had actually planned ahead by taking the day off of work.
We heard about a drum circle at the local YWCA. It was a privilege and a joy to share our love of African Drumming with @25 four and five year olds.
Later in the day, we threw on our snow clothes and mittens and gathered up all the sleds we could find around "ex house" and went to a local sledding hill.
The snow conditions were perfect for making ice balls (ouch! those hurt when someone throws one!). I built a modest (Ok, I thought, pretty terrific) snowman and snow dog.
The older boys, whose motto is "go big or go home" built a HUGE snow creature and named her "Dolores."
We played until the sun went down.
