First Snow

We got our first snow last week and I always forget just how magical the first snow is until it comes again. I especially love seeing it through my children's eyes now.  Shane loves having snowball fights and insists on wearing boots everywhere so he can stomp on any patch of snow he finds.  I love the way Marissa's eyes light up when she says, " Snow!  snow!"  She discovered ice on the airplane and now that the snow is melting and is patchy and frozen it's like great big chunks of ice right at her disposal and I have given up trying to stop her, I just try to make sure it's not yellow ha ha.  I know the magic will fade as the months pass, but these first snows make me think that I kind of want to end up somewhere with snow.  I guess that's a good thing because so far Josh's favorite programs have been in places where that should be the case:)
