First Snow of 2019

O Christ, King of Snow, 
we bless you for bidding this blanket 
of white to cover us in holy hush, 
that our hearts might be quieted 
at the sight, that we might sense
the emptiness of canvas
over which your Spirit broods, 
and upon which you would 
create 
and recreate
our hearts in the image of the one
whose word first spoke snow into existence. 
-Amen 
Doug McKelvey, Every Moment Holy 

I dared him to go make a snow angel once he got up and heard there was no school today because it was a snow day!

first sighting of snow while watching the Superbowl last night 

  
Taking Poppy out to explore before bed last night 

waking up to a thick blanket of snow this morning and news of NO SCHOOL!
