Musings on a winter day

The other snow day, the Crunch family were out frolicking in the snow (not frockiling as wee crunch said when she was 6 as in "Grandad, what does 'No frockiling in the pool mean?"). But I digress. Anway Adam, 41/2 going on 14 suddenly stops dead in his tracks and pointing at the pristine snow in front of him exclaimed; "Look Nana, snow nip nips!" And sure enough when I looked, there were two perfectly molded soft mounds of snow together, looking strangely enough like some unfortunate woman was laying under it. Adam then added "they look just like mummy's in her sweater! I'm going to look for more!". Spoken like a true male!

I have to come back and read more. . the snow nips (didn't know what they were until you explained) and the fall clutching the groceries stories were told so well!
