I Don't Know Why...

My late father used to sing a song to my mom called "I Don't Know Why (I Just Do)" as sung by Tommy Dorsey (or perhaps it was the Frank Sinatra rendition - I can only speculate because Daddy liked listening to them both).

At any rate, I have a lot of pictures like that... I like/love them, and I don't know why. I just do!

This one, in particular, I took on a rather cold and rainy day. We stayed inside, and my husband built a fire. The atmosphere was cozy and relaxed as we read, sipped coffee, put a puzzle together and listened as the kids bickered, played, bickered, played, bickered and played and then asked to be fed. Again.

In this photo, time ticked by S-L-O-W-L-Y, the fire crackled and warmed, and the world map candles alluded to the fact that out of all the places in the world, I was right where I wanted to be. Well, Paris wouldn't have been too bad either. ;)

As the Dos Equis guy may have said, had he been out in all the snow this week...

Stay toasty, my friends!
