Winter descended overnight and is still shedding her evidence all over town. As we prepare to witness the peaceful exchange of power in our country, the snow is a reminder of a greater truth. There is One who longs to bless, to blanket our days with peace and promises.
Even in the midst of war and conflict and opposing sides, there is hope. And between the snow and the Inauguration, I have 2 perfect excuses to avoid any productive activity and watch TV in my pjs.

Sounds like a plan to me! I’m doing the exact same thing today! Yay for snow days.
hmmm – never thought of using the inauguration as an excuse to be non-productive. Now you’ve got me thinking…
Enjoy your snowy day indoors! It is such an exciting day for our nation indeed! Just stopping by to catch up with “Chatting at the Sky!” Love from Colorado, Denise
Well said.
I love this post. Beautiful!
This is a really good post. Thank you, Emily. Kelly
Yes, a great plan. I did the same thing!!
Kathy
I’m with you girl!
well said, girl.
amen.
Thats what I did! Got up early to help my husband get off to work and then traded a shower and housework for the couch, big blanket and TV.
ahhh… something i sure miss by living in florida… snow days! and i would give just about anything for my jammies right now…
Beautiful and true. Thank you, mama.
I am still in my pj’s…and have gotten nothing done….and we didn’t even get enough snow to cover our grass (just a few minutes from you..how’s that), but it’s still a great excuse.
Thank you and I am using it.
I am sure that made for a very relaxing day!
Sounds like we both love our pjs. By the way I love the picture of the berries and snow. It is beautiful. I love snow! It makes me cozy!

So, while the Lord is pouring out his snowy white evidence in NC, he’s shining his sunny clear evidence here in AZ… Beautiful post. Perspective is key to keeping life in balance. Amen sista Amen!
love these photos….
and i so did not want to go to school today. i’m definitely a home body!
Love the leaf picture…great job!
Except for 30 minutes of prep for 15 minutes of playing in the snow, it was a pj-clad, anti-productive day here as well.
Hi,
Came across your blog from my friend Betsy’s. It’s been a great day to just rest and relax! Stayed in my pj’s all day, graded papers and watched the inauguration. Love the pictures!
Beautiful post…the words and photos!

Hi Megan! Got the boots at Goodwill
Used shoes are not my favorite. But I was desperate for some boots.

This is incredible! Love it!
Emily,
You have an economy of words that brings home the truth. I love reading your life.

I had missed this post. It is very restful. Thank you.
“the peaceful exchange of power in our country”….I love that expression of our democracy. Well said. So many countries aren’t blessed to experience that.
