Yesterday it was SUPPOSED to snow. Schools were closed. Everyone had bought their milk and bread and we were hunkered down and waiting for some snow. Madie was so excited for the opportunity to build a snowman. (One of her favorite Christmas cartoons this year was Frosty so I think she may have had some plans for her snowman.) We waited and waited...no snow. Then it started to snow a little and well, it didn't really snow much more than that. Madie was devastated when she woke from her nap yesterday to discover that there was no snow on the ground. She was convinced that her daddy would bring some home from work but no such luck.
So this morning when we got up....it was snowing! Big flakes. I knew from watching the weather that it was not going to be a long lived snow. I got Madie in her boots, jacket, hat, scarf and gloves (while still in her PJ's) and let her go outside on the back porch and enjoy a few minutes of the snow falling around her.
There wasn't a whole lot of snow, but there were certainly a lot of BIG SMILES!

so precious! this weather is such a tease. Surely we'll be more snow than that this winter. It will probably wait until March. LOL! Love your new countdown btw...
