"What's your favorite weather, mom?"

Wednesday it snowed. It snowed a lot. THere was enough snow for the first ski resort to open yesterday.

Wednesday it was my turn to co-op Oldest's pre-school class. I got to spend a couple of hours with my son and his friends. I also got to help 15 4-5 year olds put on snow pants and hats and mittens for the first time this school year. They always go outside to play, unless it it raining or way too cold. It's such a wonderful playground. There is a little hill that the kids can sled down when there is snow. All the kids loved the snow.

During snack time, right before we went outside, everyone was asked what they liked best about the snow. Everyone had an opinion. Some liked building snowmen, others loved sledding (Oldest). Some talked about how they love going skiing with their dads. (We are in Utah remember, so 4 year olds have been skiing for years.)

The best part of the day was when oldest said his favorite weather was snow and then asked, "What's your favorite weather, mom?". Well I have to tell you, it's not usually snow, but on Wednesday it was.
