Snow!

After a long, long wait, today the snow arrived!  I watched the first flakes fall at dawn and wondered at the fun we would have today.  So far, I’ve wandered out to see the snow on the branches of our back woods, helped Annabelle into and out of her snow boots, gloves, and hat for winter play, and admired the beautiful presence that is the snow outside my backdoor.

Snow on my neighbor’s dry echinacea.

Snowy woods behind our house, early this morning.

Can you tell that I’m excited? Now, for more snow play!
