First Snowfall of the Year

Yesterday marked the very first snowfall of the year! The excitement was bursting from Khai from the moment he first looked out the window after waking up until the end of the day. He ran through the house screaming "Snooow! Its snowing!!" and went from window to window singing snow songs and asking a million and one questions. "How does it snow? Why does it snow? Where does it come from? Why is it on the car? Can we eat it? Can we build a snowman? Can I go outside?" Last year he really didn't get to experience much snow because he was sick alot. He didn't get to play in it and only got to stomp in a pretty weak patch of remains in the front yard. It snowed all day long and by the 2nd day, when the sun came out, we spent all morning throwing snowballs at each other, stomping his name across the back yard, and for now...he enjoys helping me clean off the snow on the car. Hopefully this winter we'll get at least one more good dose of snow for him to play in. He's been dying to wear his snow boots again and this recent snowfall surely will be long gone by weeks end. :-(
