The Snowman Cometh


The Blizzard of '09 has struck! On March 1, no less. It was C's third snow day of the winter. The first two were pitiful dustings. This one was 4-5 inches.

We went outside early in the morning before the snow turned to slop. C wanted to make a snowman, but the snow was a bit on the icy side to roll so I didn't think it was going to work. But we kept piling it up and smooshing it together. Then T did her artistry and what an excellent snowman we made! When asked what the snowman's name was, C answered, "Snowman."

One of the top all-time C anecdotes occurred about two weeks ago. We were going to a birthday party of a friend of C after church. As C was getting dressed for church, we reminded him of the party. C says, "Cake now." (I wish!). E looked at his watch and said "Not now. In three hours." C looked at his wrist, as if he was wearing a watch, and said, "Clock says, Cake Now." I need that clock!
