Wonder of the Snow

So........I should be asleep right now, but it's snowing outside and I can't help but watch it for a little while. The house is quiet and the snow brings a peaceful feeling. I know as soon as I fall asleep, the next sound I will awaken to will be Gideon's crying to be picked up out of his crib, and from there on through the day, there will be no calm like this. And so, I soak in the stillness for just a moment longer.......as if to prepare for another day, filled with it's busyness.
