A Blue Bird Sky Makes the Day A-Okay

The kitchen garden during morning chores.

Pecky Becky was not the least bit upset with this morning's surprise snowfall.  He was too busy being as floofy as ever and strutting around in circles to keep himself warm.

The goats, on the other hand, were not impressed with the change in weather and let me know.  Martha and Mellie cut right back on milk production in protest.  Hopefully they get back on track or I might have to cut back on treat provision.  Just saying.

What do you mean "come out"?
There's weird stuff on the ground.
It's lava.

The boys spent a large chunk of time today outside shovelling the grass and doing their utmost to make a snowman, though their efforts were hindered by the rapidly melting snow.  They finally admitted defeat and accepted a bike ride as a consolation activity.  

We bundled Alistair up really good since he was stuck sitting in the stroller.  He seemed very comfortable though and was happy to roll along on our adventure sporting his fancy Spider-man footwear.

After spending school time this morning learning about manners and kindness in their geography/history class, Liam and Seamus were thrilled to find an extra special Carp Rock called a "kindness stone" on the forest trail.

We may have been divided on the snowy weather but once the blue bird sky made its appearance, all felt right in the world and we agreed that it really was a very good day.
