The more interesting thing.

One of my personal resolutions for this year is, when presented with a choice, to choose the more interesting one. I have done ok with this so far. Sometimes this amounts to a large decision, such as when I was presented with a birthday date night with my mother and chose to get my hair butchered rather than see a movie. Other times it is rather less dramatic. Today, for example, I could have stayed inside and watched my boys play in the snow, keeping my daughter and myself snug and warm and dry. But, I chose the more interesting thing, suited up in my husband's snow gear, and headed out for some old fashioned sledding and snowman fashioning fun. Julia got to try out her new snow suit (pink! pink! pink!!!) and I got to prove that playing in the snow just doesn't get old, even if I do.
