March: The first three days.

Well March is here and man has it come in like a lion. Weather wise, Tuesday into Wednesday we had some severe thunderstorms and hail. (Pea to dime sized and no damage.)

The angry weather brought the cold back in, which honestly is to be expected because we were getting a little too lucky to be back in spring coats already. I got myself up for the 6:30 Mass because if I didn't go then, it wasn't going to happen. I know it's not a Holy day of obligation (which is why I flew solo) but I needed to start my Lent out right.

I don't think my ashes fit on this guide very well... but they were dark. And after much googling the night before, they didn't last long. I didn't wake up to take a shower before Mass but apparently it isn't a problem to wash them off earlier than before you go to sleep so there you go. 

The highlight of Wednesday for my guy was going to his friend Carter's birthday party at Monkey Joe's. It was so precious to watch him play with his friends and interact with the group. The sweetest sweet hearts! 

Yesterday was a normal day for us, which was nice. It was still cold but that's okay, there's a thaw on the horizon! 

But today is another story, C woke up with a fever. And he was upset that he wasn't feeling well but also just as upset that he was going to miss the 100 Day party at school today! Poor dude, it was really heartbreaking as a parent. 

M has been waking up at 5:00 every day for the past few weeks and then running amok which is terrible. She was supposed to have art class today but obviously we couldn't go. We spent the first bit of the morning watching Mickey Mouse Clubhouse in our room. 

I hope we can kick the virus or whatever is ailing him, we don't have any major plans this weekend but it would sure be better to be healthy! 

So that is what the first few lion-y days of March have looked like. Have an excellent weekend friends!
