Dear Fall: I Am Miffed

Seriously. Already with the snow? The wind? The frigid single digit weather? Did you have to be such a wimp? While we were still mourning the summer that never came, you conceded defeat and let winter have its way. A mere 9 days after you arrived. Nine. Days.

Rude. Thoughtless. Inconsiderate.

But then you show me this:

October 037

And this:

October 040

And Lo, even this:

October 044

And I crack a smile. A little one. Poor sweet scarecrow is now a snowcrow?

So, all is not lost. We pull out the sweaters, slippers and cocoa. And prepare for winter to reveal God’s Glory anew.

To everything there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heavens. Ecclesiastes 3:1

    Wow! We're just woo hooing that it's not quite as hot. I forget that winter wants to be in full force other places sometimes. :)

    it sure LOOKS beautiful and I'm sure I'd enjoy it for a few days.... but I'm a FL girl though I've learned about contentment by spending years in cold climates too!
