create some magic

Snowflakes are unique, amazing and beautiful.  

No matter the size or shape of the snowflake, each one is special. 

People are unique, amazing and beautiful.

No matter our size or shape, we are all special. Important. Worthy.

Not only are snowflakes one of a kind, like people, they are shaped by their environment.  Their final appearance is actually shaped by temperature as it falls to the ground.  We too are shaped by our environment. Our personal experiences are what makes us truly special. 

Although the beauty of an individual snowflake is remarkable, it is really when snowflakes cluster together that they create magic.  

So, next time you look at fresh falling snow, think about how precious each and every snowflake is. Think about how unique it is. And think about yourself. Your beauty. Your uniqueness. And then think about who you surround yourself with. 

Go create some magic!

When jack frost attacks

I love days like today.  Winter has really just been thrust upon us, and although I am already longing for warmer weather, I must admit I do find comfort in these kinds of cold days.  We move at a slower pace it seems. We are in no hurry to get anything done. The laundry can wait. The cleaning can wait. And there will no hectic trips to stock up on groceries.  And best of all, the heat emitting from the fire place has miraculously turned my girls into sweet and cuddly sloth like creatures. 


Then the reality of this freaking cold weather will eventually hit me in the face like an unexpected snowball. I will be wakened tomorrow by my two Tasmanian devils, to piles of laundry, a messy house and empty cupboards.

But I won't worry about that right now. I have better things to do (or not do)!
