Snow-Covered

I awoke this morning to see a coating of snow on the grass outside. I guess winter wasn't quite done with us yet. Sam was up extra bright and early, but obviously still tired, so when I put her down for morning nap #1 at 6:40, I bundled myself up and headed out the door for a run. It was very quiet out there, with a misty rain falling, no cars on the road, and no birds chirping in the trees. I passed lots of snow-covered daffodils, and the forsythia along Highland Green Road was a beautiful sight - the bright yellow bushes coated with a frosting of white snow. I leisurely made my way around the loop, and despite the weather, was feeling happy and unconflicted about my choice to get out and run this morning.
