Curie and Elia really wanted to shovel snow and so at 3 inches of snow(4:30 PM), we bundled them up and they took their respective shovels (Curie has a 3 ft one and Elia has a 2 ft one), and we went out to shovel. We have really wanted to teach them the notion of charity and as this was a perfect opportunity, we went out to the common walk ways and shoveled those.
Curie said, “we need to be neighborly!” so as part of the exercise we went to almost every door in our mew and shoveled out our neighbor’s walk ways. It actually embarrassed some of our neighbors so that they came out and helped us. Our family picture here is pretty cool, we were using our waterproof camera for snap shots and the flash caught the flakes in mid-air (one on my nose, and one on Curie’s).
