Last Sunday the temperature was 40 degrees and there was absolutely no wind, but we still had a lot of snow. The kids had spent all day Saturday in the house se we decided to venture outside with all of them, including Keyan! In case you don’t know, Keyan suffers from low body temperatures and goes into hypothermia easily so she does not get to play outside in the winter, but on this day, I just couldn’t help but take the chance and boy was it worth it. We first put her snow pants on, but because of all of her tubes, we couldn’t zip them up all the way. next, I put a plastic bag over her backpack and than put one of Jamahl’s old coats over all of that. She could hardly stand up straight but she did not care…she got to play outside!!!! She was so thrilled.
We all had a great time building a snowman, constructing a snow fort, sledding down our “hill”, trying the snowboard out, and throwing a few snowballs! It was so nice to be out in the fresh air together as a family. There were lots of laughs, a few tears when things didn’t go the right way, and lots of fun memories made! Sometimes, it is SO worth taking a risk!

That's AWESOME! I'm so glad you got to go out and play in the snow together with Keyan! - You know we didn't get any snow at all this year. :( And my kids were sad.
