We woke up yesterday to our first snow on the ground.
Quite the surprise, despite being warned by multiple people that snow was in the forecast. For some reason when they told me 'snow', I logged 'flurries' in my mind.
Marion loved the surprise. She ran to the door and yelled "Look! Look outside! Snow white!!!!"
That excitement quickly turned into anger when Mommy and Daddy wouldn't let her outside to play in the snow in her pajammas.
Imagine our surprise! Just last winter she hated the white stuff so much she refused to walk in it. I had to carry her from the house to the car to take her to daycare.
Anyway, we quickly got her dressed so she could go outside and see it.
Then we headed to playgroup. In the car on the way there Marion exclaimed, "Look Mommy! Snow! It's so pretty!" Then, as we walked through the snowy slushy mess, Marion actually picked up some snow and ate it. Don't worry, I made sure it wasn't yellow.
Guess that snow hating phase is over! Good thing, since we live in Switzerland now.
The snow was gone near us by late afternoon. However, there is still some on the hills surrounding us. Next time, I'll pay more attention to those weather reports.
