It's been snowing like crazy here most of the day. As soon as I put Cooper down this morning, I bundled up Judson (despite a lot of protesting...transitions are not his strong point these days!) and we headed out to play. We'd only been out a couple of minutes when I heard this sickening cracking sound. I knew a branch had just broken off, but before I could react, it crashed to the ground about a foot or two away. I'm not exaggerating. Some of the little branches on it touched me as it fell, and I even had one stuck to my hat. It was SO SCARY. My heart didn't quit racing for quite some time. (It's probably a good thing I didn't have time to react. If I'd moved the wrong way, I'd have a much different story to tell...)
Thank you, Lord, for our safety!
And later, after we were done playing and Judson was safely inside, I raced back out to take a few photos.
The cute Judson-playing-in-the-snow pictures will have to wait. I MUST accomplish something during naptime!
