Susie’s Sense of Snow

We received a significant snowfall here today (although not that significant compared to other portions of the country lately).  It started snowing early this morning and simply didn’t stop all day.  Since I didn’t have to leave the house at all, I was able to sit back and enjoy the scenery outside. 

It really was a beautiful sight to behold. 

I contemplated bundling up the girls and taking them out to play, even though the last thing I wanted to do was go outside in the cold.  I didn’t want to be accused of depriving them of the joys of winter fun, just because I’m a stick-in-the-mud (or more precisely, a stick-in-the-house). 

I decided to open up the door and see if the girls were interested in the cold wet stuff outside.  If they displayed an eagerness to explore, I would get them suited up and out we’d go.  Fortunately for me, they shared my preference for viewing the snow from afar.  They stopped a few feet from the open door and stayed there.  Susie in particular wanted to tell me about the snow, all while keeping a safe distance from it.  Here’s a video clip of her description.  I find it especially endearing because she very rarely engages in such vociferous conversations with me.  I suppose she finds the snow inspirational!
