February 18: I love...

Noah's enthusiasm for the small things. We live in texas and recieved quite an unusual helping of snow last week and lots of snowman friends popped up around our apartment complex as every school in the area canceled school last Friday. Well, in the last week it has gradually become warmer, like good old Texas and the snow is all gone EXCEPT for a few small piles that were once our snowman friends. These piles don't even amount to a 5 lb. bucket full but as Noah and I were outside in our jeans and t-shirts Noah had the best time gathering up every stick and twig he could find to stick into the last remaining bits of snow. He even gathered up a couple clumps of charcoal and gave our little snow friend eyes. I told him it looked like a porcupine, don't you think so?
