Sami was so cute this morning. She came walking out of her room this morning rubbing her eyes and in a half daze. She walked into the dining room and looked out the sliding glass door and then turned to me with a smile in her eyes and proclaimed "SO" as she was pointing outside. She was so excited to see snow on the ground, she had to have said it about 4 times.
After feeding her and changing her it was time to leave for Rachel's, but she was not interested in leaving. So me being the smarterer one said "Hey Sami, I'm going outside to play in the snow, see ya later". I opened the front door and looked at her now at the top of the steps and said "Here I come snow, let's play". She just about fell trying to hurry down the steps. I got her coat on her and she hurried out the garage and onto the driveway where there was still some remnants of snow left. She just stood there smiling and pointing and again saying "SO". It was so cute. Something so simple as snow brought such excitement to her and not to mention something I hate every aspect of except for the way it looks... it really can be beautiful.
Then after a few hours at work and complete boredom I was on Facebook and noticed that Rachel made a comment about dressing Anna to go outside so we were exchanging messages and I found out the kids were outside playing in the snow for almost 2 hours. It just about broke my heart at the thought of missing out on such an exciting thing for Sami. The picture in my head was her with a smile on her face ear to ear and just complete amazement at running around in it and I couldn't be there because I have to go to work. It's days like today that make me wish I could be a stay at home mom.
