We took Julia outside today for a few minutes to feel the snow and see it. Yesterday when I took her out for a second she said "whoa". Then today she loved it...snotty nose and all. Of course she was bundled up like the kid off A Christmas Story and when she started to fall it was difficult for her to get her arms out to stop her but she loved it.
Falling, falling, falling......
Even happy after her face met the snow
Having your own family and living these moments out through my daughters eyes is such an amazing experience. No one could ever describe the joy in it. Even though Julia didn't realize that the white stuff could make snowmen or snowballs to throw at her Dad she still enjoyed it. It's like living childhood over again. I got excited about snow and not because I was getting a snowday from teaching. Parenting may be the most difficult job but it is the most rewarding job I will ever have.
Happy baby, happy life!
