Just a little bit of fluffy white to brighten the day.
We don't get much in the way of snow here in North Texas. We usually see ice and sleet (yuck!)
As any other good mother would do - I monitor my daughter's posts and text messages and today my heart broke when I read the exchanges between her and her older brother who is currently away at Tech School in the Air Force. He asked her what she would like for Christmas and her first reply was 'I don't know." Her brother responded with a 'don't be silly' comment and her reply brought tears to my eyes - she told him that all she wants for Christmas is for him to come home because she misses him.
I hope he does get to come home at least to visit with his siblings. I know he does not want to see or speak to me and I am fine with that.
Also with the first snow of the season - I bought my youngest daughter her first winter formal tonight. It is amazing how quickly they grow up.... one day it is the perfect valentine in elementary school, the next it is a dress for a formal occassion. Now which dress will she chose to wear? The Black & White one or the Red one ?
She looks incredible in both.
Until later ... time to kick back and watch a nice chick flick.
