No one loved a snow day more than Richard Smallwood! He loved getting in his truck and checking the roads! He loved pulling the girls around on a sled! He loved coming in and having a fire.

He has been on my mind all day today with our first snow of the year. I made two of his favorite foods tonight – chicken and dumplings and peach cobbler. I’m now enjoying a fire while watching one of his favorite movies – Sandlot…You’re killing me Smalls.

I always cherish our memories and I try to count my blessings! But some days are definitely harder!

In the end, the seemingly small things definitely end up being the big things!
