snow day


these days beth lives to play in the snow. she wants to go out and play in it everyday. even when the snow has been on the ground for days and is rock solid, she wants to go out and play. (insert beaming smile of pride from me HERE - i'm happy that i have a little girl who's not afraid to get a little cold and wet!)

we were eating lunch at the table not long ago and beth looked outside the window and said, "mom, i wanna play snow!" so i told her that after she finished her lunch we could go out and play.

"mom, i wanna play snow!" again i told her, after you eat some lunch we'll go play in the snow.

(in ultra super-whiny, pleading voice), "mom, i wanna play snow!" she then turned and looked out at the snow in a way that i could no longer refuse this girl her time in the snow.



i totally caved.

"okay sister, let's go play in the snow."





and the girl wins again.
