Snow Day!

All summer and fall long I've been knitting my children little things. Hats, mittens and scarves here and there, to keep the inevitable winter chill away. We had a hot summer and lovely fall, warm weather was with us for longer than usual. Finally, a snow day came upon us, the perfect opportunity to not only make use of the little woolies I knit but to show off how dang cute my kids look in them. They begged to out in the snow and go sledding. No prob I thought I'll just dress them warm and we'll hit the powder. I open my knitting box looking for the little woolies I know I put there, to my dismay the box is empty. All the woolies are gone and neither of my short people have any idea where they've gone. Little mites not only pilfered the woolie box but they did it without me noticing. A search of the house high and low and nothing turns up, neither hat, nor mitten nor scarf. Dang it.

So, I did what any mom would do. I put socks on their hands and sent them out with their dad. I wisely stayed inside and knit.
