I know I haven't written in a while, I mean really written, but life has been flying by so fast it's been hard to find the time to ponder life itself...
Today another blizzard struck the Fargo area. First the highways started to close, then the schools, then the winds picked up and nearly turned the whole world outside our house white. Churches closed, daycare's closed, stores closed, and even the hospital closed to non-emergency's.
I spent all day with a smile on my face and a skip in my step. My whole entire family was home, under the same roof at the same time. There was no meetings scheduled, no dinners to rush to, no patients to see. We played games, ate popcorn, watched movies, enjoyed two whole meals together and just talked.
Hmm, everyone said we were crazy for moving this far north in the frozen tundra, but it's days like this that make me think this is WHY we moved to Fargo. A blizzard is like having a family holiday in the middle of the winter where God shuts out the whole entire world and just allows love to flourish in it's purest form.
So, with the 5 ft snowdrift in front of the door, the beautiful white scenery blocking the view of our neighbors and the barely visible street signs...my love affair with Fargo continues. It's days like this that make me love it even more.
