Elise's First AMAZING Snow Fall

We had gone out shopping for Christmas. Elise was tired but being as good natured as she is, she went along with me. She entertained the women we were with but saying Please, and Thank You. It tickled the one older gal when Elise ran up to the jewelry counter and said..."Oh mommy, pretty! Buy it?"

Wouldn't you know it, the one day planned to go shopping it snowed all day. Elise though it was a game to get bundled in her coat and Yo Gabba Gabba hat and gloves. At the end of the afternoon we headed home and Elise chatted me up with her now full words, and broken sentances. We were not far from home when I noticed that the Snow was coming down in BIG snow flakes. Elise noticed too because she yelled "OH BUBBLES MOMMY, YOOK SEE!!! BUBBLES" I giggled and told her that it was SNOW. We got home and I pulled her out of her car seat and told her to run to the front door and knock for Daddy to open it, while I brought our bags in. Elise got out walk a few steps and was in AWE. I realized she had never really seen Snow, or at least this snow. It was thick and white and the pretties snow I had seen in a while. Elise ran to the front lawn and raised both mittened hands towards the sky trying to catch it. I showed her how to try and catch them in her mouth. She ended up with them on her nose. Over and over she said "Oh Pretty". It was the kind of sweet thing that tugs at a mommies heart. To Elise, this was most beautiful amazing thing she had ever seen, and she told me so.
