My daughter won't stop crying today. After having a snow day off from kindergarten, she doesn't want winter to end. Seeing the grass beneath the melts sets her off (making me think she may need less sugar in her diet). I'm trying to help her realize that this is not the end of the fun, but the beginning. There is more to come.
Advent. Looking forward to the new life. Not the melted tracks that the sled has already travelled, but the morning when the pristine slopes invite you to try a different path.
She wants to moniter the weather and see when it will snow again.
I promise her that if she waits, she will see more snow: better snow.
Promise.

sorry for all of the deleted comments - I tried to post a moment ago and it showed up 3 times! So let me try again... Thanks Melissa for a beautiful story (though I'm sorry you had a crying child all day - not so fun)!
