Ok ok I know I hear the groans at the back.... Snow is a pain in the bum because the world seems to stop but let's focus on the good things!
Normally we go sledding but unfortunatly because I am falling apart at the seems and have hurt my achillies tendons we couldn't participate this year... So far.
However I have to say I love the snow the place just seems beautiful as its glistens in the white glow. Plus its an excuse to be a little kid again ;)
I remember the first time I have ever seen snow. I must have been about 4 years old and I was asleep. It felt like the middle of the night when my dad excitedly awoke me, but I think it was more like 9pm. He gently awoke me and said 'look half pint, its white outside its been snowing. Want to make a snowman with daddy?'. As I nodded sleepily yes I remember being tucked into my red snow suit and having the time if my life playing with in the snow with my parents and brothers. That was also my first memory of knowing how close we all are. After that we still squeal at snow.
So this morning it was music to hear my lil ones squeal as they awoke to snow this morning.
As I said sledding wasn't on the menu but making a cool snowman in the garden certainly was!
Enjoy the little snow we have had this year and more we may yet recieve and remember that fun childhood well spent ;)
