| Our front yard a few years ago |
When I was
growing up, snow was the norm for nearly six months. We lived about ten miles
from Lake Michigan so we would get lake effect snow. Most years our yard would
be white from November until March. I was very happy when I moved down south
where the winters are much shorter.
But I have
mixed feelings about snow. Before December 25, I love it because it never feels
quite like Christmas without a little snow. After Christmas is over, I hate
snow because then it becomes cold and annoying.
Snow is in
the forecast for tomorrow and I hope we get some. Though this is very early for
snow to come down here in North Carolina and I hope it’s not a sign of things
to come. Luckily I do work from home so most of the time I can watch the snow
without having to go out in it.
Emily always
gets excited for snow because she really wants to play in it. The one year we
went up to Michigan for Christmas there was no snow on the ground and didn’t
really start snowing until we were driving home.
So snow is
welcome for now but hopefully winter won’t last too long past Christmas.
