We got our first big snowstorm today. It's been snowing steady all day, and it's supposed to get worse tonight. Of course the snow comes on a day that we had fun plans. We were all ready to go to the mall to ride the train, and then I looked out the window and all I saw was white. Cole was set on leaving the house, so I bundled up the kids and we made the trek two buildings down to play with Mindy, Rykker and Brigham. Cole wanted to walk in the snow, what two year old wouldn't? The sidewalk blended in with the grass and the street so he kept drifting off the sidewalk and getting stuck in knee-deep snow. Next time we'll remember the snow pants! Or just stay home :)
Why is snow so appetizing to kids? Cole ate it off the ground outside, off his coat, off the stroller, and off the floor inside. I know it's gross, but it won't really hurt him. Sometimes you need to let your kids be kids!
I'm not a fan of the snow, but who doesn't love the first big snow of the season? The world blanketed in clean white snow is such a beautiful sight! It really is a winter wonderland.
