The snow was REALLY coming down this morning when the boys and I woke up…it was so sweet to see them all rush to the window and stand there looking out in fascination. It truly is just as mesmerizing and soul-quieting for me to watch the snow fall now as it was for me when I was a little child. I pointed out the birds flying to Jonas, and he asked me where they were going. I said probably some place warmer. He said he thought they were flying up to space where the sun is. Ha! I also enjoyed this conversation…
Xander: Where’s the snow coming from?
Jonas: God…He says let there be snow…and it just falls.
We waited until Roman went down for his morning nap and Daddy got home to bundle up and head out to play. The boys made snow angels and tasted the snow, we all threw snowballs, and (as our snowman building attempts failed) Tom made a snow volcano…complete with baking soda and red vinegar. Yay for weekend snow days!!!
