it snowed a bit early this morning, leaving an almost imperceptible layer on the grass in the front yard. i could still see it falling as i sat on the couch by the window with my 3 year old son, who had just woken up. i pointed outside, and he looked at it coming down and said: "more snow, daddy... bigger!" i told him i couldn't make it snow more, and that it was really up to the clouds. he looked up at the sky, and said "more, snow, please". it was very cute. the snow stopped a minute later, but by that time he was already sitting in his chair at the table - happily eating a banana.
