Snow....

Last winter was unusually mild here in Ohio.  We didn't have any real measurable snow, so the boys don't really remember snow.  We got a light dusting of the white stuff last night.  When we told the boys about it this morning, Jackson was extremely excited!

First we talked about it.  He was excited to see it and see how pretty it was.  Then it dawned on him - we have Christmas lights in the trees outside.  His excitement turned to concern for the lights, but returned to excitement when Mommy reassured him the lights would be fine, and that the snow would make them even prettier.

After breakfast, he hurried to put his shoes and coat on so he could go out and see the snow. 

The ride to daycare was hilarious.  Jackson talked non-stop about the snow.

I like the snow. 
Do you like the snow Daddy?
Do you like the snow Mommy?
Do you like the snow Lincoln?
I like the snow.
I want to go to Chickadees and play in the snow.
It's snowing!

(Then, he started all over again).

The best part was when we pulled up to a stop light.  There was a big truck next to us.  He must have been blocking the light just right, as I heard Jackson say, "Oh no.  I can't see it snowing.  That big truck is blocking my snow!"

And this was all for a dusting.  Heaven help us if we get a foot!
