first snow!
In the middle of the day yesterday I looked up from the book I was reading to Harvey and gasped, "Oh! It's snowing!"
Harvey lept up from his seat. "CAN WE GO OUT AND PLAY? CAN WE BUILD A SNOWMAN? CAN WE BUILD A CAVE LIKE DADA MADE LAST YEAR — DO YOU KNOW HOW TO MAKE THAT CAVE MAMA??"
A half-hour later we had gathered all the snow things from various closets and the basement. Harvey practically leapt into his snow-pants, but Zion took a lot more convincing. Forceful convincing.
Here was Harvey out in in the first snow of the year. It was hard to photograph him standing still since he wasn't frolicking like he invented the word.
SNOOOOOOOOW!!!
Zion was not so sure about it.
"ow?"
He stood in the same spot for ten minutes watching Harvey and me jump around, then he started whining to go inside.
At the very least, it's a relief to know we have snowsuits and boots that fit both boys. Zion could use a fleece hat that says on his head; maybe I'll sew one for him when I clear the mitten-making material off the floor of the office.
Oh, and hurray for winter!

Only sort of related - when I saw the new look my first thought was "look, it's snowing!" and then I realized it was God rays. In any event, I'm enjoying the new look and I'm glad someone got to enjoy the first snow.
It's both!
