This morning while reading The Snowy Day, a book about a little boy named Peter who spends an adventure filled day playing in the snow, Nate and Juliana showed their Yankee mama true signs of being Southern born babes...
Part of the story reads: "He picked up a handful of snow--and another, and still another. He packed it round and firm and put the snowball in his pocket for tomorrow. Then he went into his warm house."
"Before he got into bed he looked in his pocket. His pocket was empty. The snowball wasn't there. He felt very sad."
"What do you think happened to the snowball?" I asked the kids
Juliana: "Maybe it ran away."
Nate:"Maybe it died."
Oh boy. We need to get up North more often.

You MUST post January 11th story on Face book. It is just too funny.
Too cute! I loved that story as a child. :) I"m sure my Southern born boys would know what happened though, now that they live in the Midwest. :) lol
Very cute Kate!! I love to hear kids answers to questions like that, you just never know what they might come up with!
Send them up here, we can show them some good old blizzard snow storm!! Nothing like snow in Buffalo!
We miss you guys!
Love to all!
