Seriously, every morning for the past two weeks, it has literally been freezing outside. It hasn’t been above 20 degrees and I’m so over the cold. This morning Carter and I woke up and just stayed in bed. It was too cold to even move. It seems like the colder it gets, the slower I move. I have hardly gotten my to do list done because all I want to do is sit by the fire and drink hot chocolate.
The problem I’ve found with just sitting and doing nothing is that it is rubbing off on my toddler. All he wants to do is sit by the fire and play on the iPad or snuggle in his favorite blankie watching movies. I feel like a terrible mother because he is turning into a vegetable. I just keep reminding myself that this is temporary. It won’t be cold outside forever and as soon as the weather warms up, we won’t be stuck inside all the time.
