Southern Snow to Sunshine State

I can count on one hand the number of days it snowed in Dallas while we lived there--one in which Pearl happened to be born, in the car (that's another story)--but we were blessed with one more day of it before we made the move to the Sunshine state. I love the brilliant green blades beneath the bright blanket of white. We are officially Floridians now, though. Moving here certainly wasn't in the plans. I'm reluctantly realizing that is how life usually unfolds. I don't think I know anyone who actually follows the planned path. Life would be rather boring, I suppose if it did. Pearl expressed concern about letting new people move into our old house. She didn't want them sleeping in her bed and using her blankie. What a sweetie. Divine was excited about getting a new house because our other one was OLD. Olive doesn't care where she is, she can cause chaos in any environment. As for the rest of us, we're just glad to be together as a family!
