Let it snow

Snow is in the forecast for my neck of the woods. It has been forecasted that we could get 6-8 inches over the next day or two. You never know for sure if the weathermen are going to be right, so I didn't say anything to Trey about the snow. The poor boy has wanted to build a snowman since October and starts getting excited whenever he sees as much as one flake in the air.

As I was putting him to bed the first flakes started falling. He got so excited. He was saying, "its snowing! Its snowing! Christmas time is here! We must get our tree out of storage! I'm going to get lots and lots of presents! Santa is coming! Santa is coming!"

Well, I had to laugh as he bounced around his room. I tried to explain that it was not Christmas, just winter time. His spirits were only dampened for a minute. Talk of snowman building made his little eyes shine. That look, the wonder of Christmas, came. a little late this year but was worth waiting for.

So, I say, "I've got no place to go. Let it snow! "Let it snow! Let it snow!".
I'm going to build a snowman today!
