Cold...Snow...More Cold

Why does it seem like kids don't feel the cold?  I wish I were like that.  Bowen has his pajama shorts on--which isn't unusual.  But it seems unusual that he has them on while outside playing in the snow.  (If you were to visit our house in the afternoon even on the coldest day, Bowen would be wearing his pajama shorts.)  Jackson could spend all day out in the snow with his snow gear on.  When I call him in, he always claims, "but it's not cold!"  I think I actually have some memories of the days when I didn't mind the cold and snow.

The other thing I love about my kids and the snow is how darn cute they look in their snow clothes! They have reached the point where they can basically get themselves bundled up to go outside.  When a good snow storm hits, they (along with the rest of the neighborhood kids) meet to go sledding between our two neighbors' houses.  It's a great hill that entertains them for awhile. Jackson is always so good to help Bowen.  Sadly, I have to admit, I haven't put on snow gear this year and joined them in the fun.  What would I do with Alivia?!

I love this picture. Aaahhh, brotherly love! Knowing Alivia, she'd probably like to be out there too, even for just a short time. After all, anything good enough for her brothers is good enough for her.
