SNOW ON MARCH 1st, WHAT A GREAT SURPRISE!!!!!

Living in the south we rarely get to see snow. There have been a few times when in the morning when we woke up to a white covered lawn but usually the weather man predicts it, kids get excited and the stores sell out of milk and bread and then nothing.... Well this morning was different. At 4am I saw beautiful snowflakes falling. I ran upstairs to wake my son to see it for fear it would never stick. After we went back to sleep and finally woke up around 9am the yard, trees and bushes were filled with heavy white snow.

Needles to say all the children in the neighborhood spent the next few hours making snowmen, snow angels, throwing snow balls and having a blast. This lasted for a few hours until the sun came out and then as quickly as it came, it melted. My son was sure to bring in some snow and put it in a plastic bag and keep in the freezer so he could remember it. Me, well I will remember his radiant face as the flakes were falling and even though the snow didn't last long, our memories of the morning will last forever...
