6 Things to Like About Snow



I know that some of you hate snow, as soon as winter hits you're ready for summer and sunshine (hit it Olaf) but really there are some things about snow that melt my heart and remind me that each season if wonderful in its own way.  Here are the top six reasons to love the snow as much as your children do...

 

Snowmen.  Look at that cute little face and tell me you don't like snow men. 

Sledding.  We very rarely have enough snow to sled so when we do it is all the more special. This year we bought two sleds. A small one and one large enough for most of us to fit on together.

Snow angels.  My middle child watches out the window every time it snows. As soon as there is an even spread on the grass she pulls on her boots and asks to go out and make a snow angel.  

 

Views like this. Before anyone walks through the snow and it is crisp and beautiful.  I could stare at this view for hours. This day was especially lovely because a layer of ice had formed on the tree before the snow and added an extra layer of winter wonder.

Playing with snowballs.  We learned this winter that puppies and chickens like to eat snowballs.  Puppies, our neighbors', like to catch them in midair and chickens like to eat them... all around snowballs are fun for all- except cats. Our cats would not be amused.



Finally, the last thing we love about snow... knowing it will soon melt and spring will come.
