We all had a surprise when we woke up this morning - snow! Apart from a powdery covering over Easter, this was the first proper snow since
February last year, and we had begun to give up hope of a chance for Ben to play in snow this year. As it happens, the novelty wore off quite fast, and he decided it was much more fun playing with his new dustpan and brush set inside. And we think he may be the first child in history to determinedly refuse attempts to encourage him to eat the snow. Oh well, maybe next year...

Oh man, the sight of snow makes me feel queasy. We've had over 2 metres of it this winter...
But it would have been so much fun to run around with Ben out there.
Sigh. Missing Kenilworth...

Not sure we would cope with 2 metres of snow but 2 inches is quite exciting!
Off to meet Rich and Clare in a minute. Miss you guys!

But you're supposed to throw the snow at mummy & daddy Ben, not eat it. I'll show you how next year!
