Blizzard, December 27

Over 12 inches of snow. One happy boy. He didn't want to come in from sledding in our front yard. He didn't mind when the snow kicked up a bit and fell on his face, or when he fell off his sled in excitement. He rolled through the snow, giggling and laughing the whole time. Big Daddy brought him in while the excitement was still at a peak, to settle down, warm up and have some hot chocolate. "Keep them wanting more", he tells me, is the key.
