Duendesday!

{life with a curious and crazy 10 yr old}

Pre-snow adventures – as usual, out in the weather, underdressed though after half a foot of fluffy wet snow, she was head-to-toe bundled. So stiff she could barely make it out the door, to find a sled, and carry a bucket around knocking down icicles. But it’s a cold coldness after this storm, not the warm cozy blanket of snow yet. Just an icy crust – impenetrable and not as intriguing. Inside she comes, bringing new eggs, making sourdough pancakes and scones, building Kiwi-crate komodo dragons, playing Uno and Parcheesi with Daddy, writing movie scripts (ask her about ‘Woof Jones’), and designing block and lincoln log towns. It’s a busy life for a 10 yr old.
