“Play in Snow Please!”

Andrew gets so excited now when he sees snow on the ground. We had a couple of inches fall during the night and throughout the day so there was a decent amount on snow on the ground. From the time he woke up this morning it was “Mommy Andrew out in snow please?!” “Daddy, Andrew play in snow please!?” over and over in various statements. Last winter he was sick so much that he was never completely healthy when it snowed so this was his first time in the snow. Needless to say, he reacted much like we figured and much like Mommy used to – he hated it! Well…he didn’t like the wind and the cold, but he kept saying “No inside please! Stay play in snow!” So we let him “play”, mostly there were tears throughout the entire incident, but overall he had a decent time! He is saying “No snow” now when we ask him if he wants to go outside! I think he (like all of us) are already ready for spring!
Andrew doesn’t look very happy about the snow. I remember having to shovel paths and areas for standing for Amy because she didn’t like the snow either. Give him another year or two and you won’t be able to keep him out of the snow!
