From this morning: my backyard transformed into a frosty winter wonderland.
A patio in the foreground, a birdbath in the mid-ground, and a lawn with a large maple tree in the background all covered with three inches of snow

Every night, my boys, Emmett and Apollo, insist I open the bathroom window while I’m brushing my teeth so they can sniff the cool, autumn air.

Apollo has commandeered my re-usable grocery bags and turned them into a bed. They’re his grocery bags now.
Happy Caturday to those who celebrate. 😸
