fun in the sun . . .


Lincoln was thrilled to slide down the slide clearing all the snow with him. Look at his face. You'd think he was at Disneyland.



I had so much fun playing in the sun with the kids yesterday. The sun and snow. I forgot how much fun it is to play in snow with the warm sun shining on you to take that bite away. Speaking of the bite you get from the cold--Tuesday morning I was walking L into preschool and it was lightly snowing. I asked him if he was cold and he said, "No the snow is warm and ticklish." Aren't we supposed to say it is cold and stings? I thought it was ironic that he came up with the exact opposite of the norm. And on the way back to the car I noticed that it was so light it did sort-of tickle when it landed on your face. It made me smile. I sure like that kid!

The title of this entry is deceiving...I was wondering when you took a sunny vacation. Lincs always makes me laugh with the things he says.

The sun does make me happy. I'm noticing all sorts of cobwebs in my house today because it's so BRIGHT inside!

I'm not sure how kids are always able to ignore that it's cold. Maybe it's because they don't pay attention to how they feel, they just enjoy the moment and the chance to be outside.

Lincoln is such a hoot!! I remember the good ol' days of playing in the snow. It's been too long for me.
