DUCK!

Luckily for me, this snowball was aimed at my feet and not my face, though if I hadn't had Ophelia strapped to my front in the baby carrier, it may have been a different story! Bit gutted today as Grace was supposed to be going to see Santa, but we didn't go out because of the snow. I didn't want to risk the kids' safety. Santa was a half hour drive away on some pretty bad roads, our our car is rubbish in the snow and we live on top of a big, steep hill which is a nightmare to get down in weather like this and often impossible to get back up. As it is, Hubby only just managed to get back up the road on his way back from work this morning, and then only the back road, not our usual way.

I would like to say thank you to everyone for their kind comments these past few weeks. Since Ophelia was born, I've tried to post as many journal entries as possible, but it has been almost impossible to get on here long enough to post any comments on others' journals, so I am sorry about that.
