First Snowfall

Theo has been waiting for it.  Eagerly anticipating.  So it was easy to rouse him up out of bed this morning with the promise of an exciting sight out his window.  After a hot shower (oh no! wrinkles be in Theo's future!) he joined me for breakfast.  The flakes coming down outside were huge and lovely.  Theo was so moved he had to go outside and yell for joy.  And then he came in and said, "You know Mom, those flakes are so big, they kind of remind me of big flakes of skin."  Nice Theo. Ever the poet.
