Winter Wonderland
Monday, October 16, 2006
Woke up this morning to see the rain had turned to snow as we slept. My first thought was how pretty, but it was followed by, How icy are the roads? Will the other drivers be carefull? Is he awake enough to manage the icy cormers? Do Rainbow Mans boots fit? Where are his mitts. Adult stuff.
The difference between how adults see the world and how kids see it, was brought home this monring when Rainbow Man bounded out of bed screamind It Snowed! waking up his brothers and all three came tumling out of their rooms and sped to the windows. Excited chatter about snowmen and snow balls and Can I go Play mom.
They look outside and see a brand new playing feild. School time came for Rainbow Man, and he hadn't gone more then six inches past the door when he swooped down to grab a handful of snow. He saw a toy, I saw that last years winter coat has to be replaced.
I dressed the two younger boys up to go
Not very likely is it?
Right now, Warmed by hot chocolate, Stuperman has forgotten the cold hands and cheeks, and is standing, nose to the window, talking to the snow. Blue Boy is begging to go back out, but is to unsure of the new snowfall to venture out alone. He thinks he may "freeb to deff." Trying to explain the concept of a doorbell to This four year old is not going well.

Hey Blue, after leaving the gym when I walked outside my glasses fogged up due to the heat and humidity. But I feel cool all over again thanks to your post.
MMmmmm...cool weather. Yes, you thought I was gloating didn't you. I wish it were cold! ;-)
Love the pictures - especially the mittens - how cute.
I love snow, as long as I don't have to be anywhere.
Fantasta girlACK I didnt take the pics in the post, If you want to see th eboys in the snow its in the link titled photos. But if I had little red mittens I take apic just like that. Maybe with sponge bob mitts? will it work?
Consider the snow sent to you then!
Ole Blue ok fine, take a left, a left, a right, walk straight and another left, right, right, left, backwards annnnnd stop. You are here. NOW do you like the snow???
Chicked the place out did you? Nice.
Ah... I miss little one's and the first snow. The only way to look at winter and enjoy it is through their eyes.
My thoughts on snow are:
1) the first snowfall of a season is pretty
2) it's kind of neat to have snow on Christmas
3) if it has to snow at all, it might as well snow enough for us to be "snowed in"
5) it's better than an ice storm
4) in general, it sucks.
P.S. Like the new look!
ugh, I hate snow! I might freeb to deff too!
Luv luv luv luv the new look.
Holy shit! I hope it's not contagious.
