A note, from John-Paul and Jeff,

First and foremost we would like to apologize for yesterdays post. The girls were unfortunately allowed to spend a considerable amount of time yesterday being idle. Really we have no idea what goes on inside their heads. For while we, John-Paul and Jeff, were stuck inside all day sheet rocking and hiding the buttons on the wall, the girls were off roaming the yard in shorts, plowing through snow drifts higher than their knobby knees, gallivanting and giggling, and stomping through mud puddles to their hearts content.

Perhaps their guilt over enjoying the spring time made them melancholy for the winter they had to let go.
