At last

Not long after we got up, the snow started. Lovely big fat flakes that lay quickly. Eventually, we got wrapped up, filled a hot water bottle and grabbed a blanket for Noah, with the intention of a brisk walk. Before we made it out the gate, however, a snowman was built, and before we made it to the end of the lane, an excellent snowball fight was had. Even the boy with the beginnings of chicken pox joined in with great enthusiasm.
He was asleep in the back of the buggy by the time we got back though.
