WILD CHILD: The Wintermission Challenge

I love sitting and drinking a warm cup of tea or coffee outside while dressed in comfortable and cozy clothing head to toe. I love tobogganing, I love having snowball fights with my children, and I love sitting in deep fresh drifts of snow and feeling like I'm in the middle of a cloud.

What do you love about winter?

Often we can fall back on complaining about the weather when we have only a few moments to chat with a friend or when we meet someone new. But a friend recently reminded me that in places where winter stays longest, people look forward to the benefits of winter. Thinking about and talking about our favorite parts of something has a wonderful way of reminding us why something is enjoyable and sharing that joy with others.

The next few days as we enjoy the snow that is blanketing our city, I will be posting daily challenges, fun things you can get out and try here and on our WILD CHILD Facebook Page. For today, simply try to talk about the things you love about our snowy winter days.
