And it's back

Skinny snowman & pet snowballs

The snow was gone. I was enjoying playing in the puddles and seeing the grass again. And now, in one night, it's all back! I was still happy to go out and play. Not William. He was pretty sad about the grass. But he eventually followed us out and had fun anyway. Mommy thought we'd finally be able to build a really big snowman with all that heavy, wet snow. It hasn't been sticky enough all winter. But it turned out not to be so sticky after all and we had to collect snowballs instead. Our snowman turned out pretty skinny and kept falling down, but we got it built. I also found one snowball that I made my pet and I carried it everywhere with me.


The spectator's lounge

The most fun thing Mommy built was a fort with seats in it. The snow was so heavy and packed that she just shoveled benches in the snow bank and we could sit on them! Mom and Dad tried to say it was just for them to watch us play on the big snow hill, but we insisted on having seats in it, too. William and I played there for a long time even after Mom and Dad left because their butts got cold. It was fun to have the snow back again for a little while. And when it melts, it will mean more puddles!
