spring break musings...

Its Day 7 of spring break, and its been quietly eventful - used my new silicone baking pan to make the BEST chocolate cake I've EVER made(!), been playing games, reading, treasuring coffee-laiden lazy mornings, rock and beach-glass gathering, watching A LOT of curling, marvelling at the strange peace of my home with six kids in it (!), swimming, treating the gang to McDonald's for lunch, redoing our living room, and eating the spiciest chocolate gelato cone I've ever had - Ottavio's Chocolate and Chili.

The week has also been punctuated by the wackiest weather the coast has seen all winter - freakish snowstorms (thankfully not sticking here yet), chilly temperatures, a middle of the night trip to emergency for Tessa, who is recovering well from the most acutely painful but mild ear infection she's ever had (go figure), and anticipating the arrival of our new leather couch only to discover (not a surprise) that the movers couldn't get it inside our house {sigh}...

Everything happens for a reason...
