No, not everything went well today (not even close) - but I am happy anyway.
Grateful for days such as these.

snow
each snowflake is different
technically, they're all crystalized water
there are complex, symmetrical flakes
large, sloppy-wet flakes (if they were kisses, they would be from dogs)
some come at the earth hard and fast, practically pelting
others float lazily down, and seem not to have a care in the world.
they all look alike from afar
but each snowflake is unique
in shape and size and texture
and when layered, nestled, snuggled up together
they make a beautiful blanket to cover the world with
and light up the dark cold nights and bring a quiet peace to my backyard and soul.
This weekend it snowed--the earliest snow in my PNW memory. N3 wanted to put on Christmas music when he saw it. I am strictly a no Christmas music before Thanksgiving person normally, but I could not say no to a few songs. We walked in winter wonderland and made dreams by the fire. How nice, to have dreams. It is nice, too, when they come true.
