Ice Skating

Yesterday we went ice skating....the three kids and I, and that is why I have no pictures of the outing. But maybe I can paint a few pictures for you.

It was on a small frozen pond, surrounded by a little forest. The air was nippy. It was a clear afternoon. The sun was starting to set. Other children there laughing and playing around.

That's the good picture. Here's the other picture...

...a bloody lip, freezing cold hands, tears. That would be a picture of James.

Daniel's picture would be a smile with a mouthful of snow.

Anna's picture would be of a warm, cuddled, sleeping baby, and I, I breathed a sigh of relief when we all made it back into the car after the ordeal.
