A Snowy day






I am finally posting at last.  Lydia and I were able to go outside and play in the snow.  We haven't had snow here for a while.  We do get chances to go outside otherwise, but, although the sun is shining, it is usually windy.  There was not very much wind today which  made it a perfect day to build a snowman.  I brought a carrot outside with us, for his nose of course.  She kept wanting to eat it.  It was her first snowman.   In the last picture I told her to smile. You can see the classic face she gave me. It was fun to see her making the connection to the song, "Once There was a Snowman," and to the pictures that she has seen.  Although it did snow it was a wet snow and she loved to look at the melting snow in the drain pipesl.  The morning was so fun and getting out created a peaceful afternoon because Lydia took a restful nap.
