'Snowy'

Today threatened snow. The weather forecast predicted it as did the air, which was cold, grey and thick with anticipation. This made for one very excited 4-year-old and as the thick, white feathery flakes started to spew from the sky, gently spiralling their descent towards the earth Cameron eagerly watched from the window to see whether the ground would soon be hidden by a soft white blanket.

Despite stop-start flurries throughout the day there was little evidence of any snow at ground level, save a smattering on the grass. Undeterred, Cameron set out on his mission to make a snowball. And here it is. 'Snowy', your life, though transient, gave great pleasure to one happy little boy.
