i really dragged february through the mud last week, and i thought it’d only be fair to give the month a few reasons why it’s not the total and entire bane of my existence. because fluffy white robes, staying in your pajamas till 3 then determining that maybe you should just stay in them all day, not really needing to leave the house at all without feeling badly about it… those are all good things (in small doses). things collectively slow down in february and i get a lot of those days moms write about. the slow, mundane ones that we’re told to cherish. “these are the days! the moments are long but the years are short!” and a lot of the time, i really do love them. plopping parker and anders on the couch and getting them all snuggled up in blankets, watching the smiles spread across their faces because they are as excited to get snuggled up together under blankets as you are to tuck all the edges in for maximum warmth, reading books, crawling fast behind anders and saying, “i’m going to get you!” while he crawls away until collapsing on his belly and kicking his feet laughing, painting pictures and not caring so much about the mess, making banana pancakes, hearing parker ask for you to help him count to 300 (while he’s on the toilet), drinking hot coffee every morning that seems more like a necessity than a luxury in february, seeing the pinkest evening sky over snow covered trees (just last week! it was amazing!), listening to music both new and old, and having a little dance party. the days move slow, and there’s a lot to notice in each of them when you’re not racing through the hours. each is giving us more and more daylight, as we inch closer to spring and bare feet and sun on our faces. winter is not totally my thing, but i’m still going to give credit where credit is due. we’re all snug in tight and there’s something really nice about that (most of the time).

yes yes yes completely agree! there's a fine line between cozy and cabin fever, right, but there are always moments to cherish that will never be back, and spring will get here eventually!

Plus, you have that cute little sidekick to stare at day in and day out.

These comments you see on the internet about DR ONOFE are not just comments, they are truthful words of experience written by those who have been there and found help in reuniting with the ones they hold dear to their heart and other marital and financial problems. I can tell you this because I also asked him for help to cast a love spell to fix my relationship with the only man I have ever loved. we got married but couldn't have a baby and then I discovered my womb was damaged. I had to try some spell casters but to no avail until I contacted DR ONOFE. HE restored my womb and just like that i got pregnant,i have given birth now and our baby is growing. Thank God for our lives and also to DR ONOFE who God has used to blessed us. I know that not everybody will believe this moreover its just something on the internet but my heart knows every of this word that formed this entire comment is true. his contact is: onofetemple@yahoo.com or onofetemple@gmail.com website:http://onofetemple.wix.com/http
