brr...it's cold in here...
E's fervrent prayer was to have a white Christmas. It's what she prays for every.single.year.
She loves snow.
It's only appropriate that she should have the first snow of the season come right on her birthday.
This morning, she was the first person up, dressed and stuffing herself into her brand-new snowpants.
How she ever became such a snow-baby, I'll never know.
The rest of us don't love it.
I detest it.
BUT.
I do love the novelty the kids find in it.
I love to hear their giggles against the muffled sky as they wipe-out for the umpteenth time. I love to see their pink cheeks and glassy eyes from the crisp, freezing wind. I love their sighs of contentment, and exhaustion, as they defrost over a cup of hot cocoa.
*SIGH*
