SAM'S BIRTHDAY WISH.....SNOW SNOW SNOW

It started back on this day, my little boy woke up to the first snow that year on his BIRTHDAY!! I remember waking him and telling him his present was outside, he ran to look our the window and was thrilled to see SNOW!! At this young age he really thought it came just for him and for his birthday. Man, do I miss him being this young and that little face. That smile has only gotten bigger.

He got ready early that morning and headed out to check the snow before the bus came. His snow buddy Summer was just as excited too. He's carrying his birthday treat in the bag, they are so cute!

After school he went out with Renee his other snow buddy. They love to shovel the snow then play in it. Look how much we got that first day, plenty to shovel and play and make a snowman with.

 

So fast forward to TODAY which marks one month till this little guy's birthday and what does he ask me every morning??? Yep, you guessed it, did it SNOW???  That's all he talks about and requests it at bedtime too. Last week when home sick he actually asked me if I thought the chances were good to have early snow again this year and that don't I want the snow to come again on his birthday??? Ummm... seriously how can I say no to that!!! I too love that first magical snow and how pretty it is when you wake up and see it. I love seeing the kids play in it and I actually don't mind shoveling and getting bundled up to take them out. Of course by February I'm done with it and want spring to hurry up and come. Last winter was pretty easy on us so I wonder if he didn't get enough "SNOW" time and that's why the extra requests this year. To be honest the crazy weather here feels like we could have a early and cold winter start. This would make my almost birthday boy very happy. I remember Lucky loving that first snow too, he would go out all day and just run thru it and looked so happy.

 

So if we do get a early winter and you aren't the winter type, I'm sorry in advance that my son's constant requests for it may have started it. Please just remember this cute face though and how happy it will make him. Bundle up and go play in it and enjoy some hot choclate afterwards.

Thanks for following along on this memory of mine. I will have to show Sam this when he gets home, will probably make him happy and confirm that YES, birthday wishes do come true.
