So, we in the DC subs are in the middle of a winter storm ...B's school was closed today, and it probably will be tomorrow as well. I decided to work from home, which basically means taking a vacation day, but checking email and being available for anything that comes up that I can handle over my work laptop and a remote server.
The early snow was the perfect snowball/snowman snow. We built this guy in record time! Not sure what B was going to use his pool toy for? That's my cool chenille hat on the snowman's head...I forgot the scarf. Rocks for eyes, half-used carrot for a nose and for a mouth...holly berries! Those things wouldn't stay in...I kept having to add fresh snow around them!
He is a bit leafy and dirty, as there wasn't much in the back yard when we built him, but it is really coming down now...
A few hours later, he was playing on the back porch...

| Wow, I love this face! |
Look at that face...wish I still had that outlook on a "snowed-in" day! Instead of worrying about what is not getting done, all he is thinking about is the "here and now moment".
Thanks for reminding me how happy I was back int the day s when it was snowing!
