2019 is beginning with a beautiful wintery storm. I love seeing the light covering of snow as we look out over the homestead. It’s cold yet peaceful.
The animals don’t mind as it isn’t a ton of snow. Phantom actually loves the snow. Dixie, on the other hand, would prefer to stay in the shelter. The other critters are good as long as the wind isn’t too crazy.
December was a bit rough for our family as we said goodbye to Wiley. A couple of weeks later, we also said goodbye to Munchkin’s sweet guinea pig. We ended up burying them right by each other under a tree. I want to plant a bush at the top of each of their graves once spring comes around.
The fresh snow feels like a new beginning for 2019. While it may end up being a crazy year, this new beginning is welcome.
