Let It Snow!

We've been sick. Well, Jader and I have been the most sick, anyway. Austin felt ill for about two days, but we've been under the weather for about nine days. When we went home for Thanksgiving, my sister-in-law and her daughter were sick, and they passed it on to us. I think they were seeking revenge, because last year, during Christmastime, Austin got everyone sick. His sickness was of the projectile vomiting type. It was not a pretty picture to have at least six adults, and three babies under the age of 8 months all sick with projectile vomiting. I mean, not to gross you out or anything, but I had vomit coming out of my nose it was ejecting with such strong force. Can't recall any other time that has ever happened to me, and to be honest, I don't want to experience it again. You know how vomit burns in your throat after it comes out, well imagine it burning your nose, and you smelling that smell all day for two days. Yuck!!!

Okay, back up, I didn't want to post about sickness today, because we are feeling better! We actually went outside yesterday. So that is good. The exciting news is that while we were sick, we received our first snow fall. Jader loved it! When we opened the blinds for her to see, her first word was 'W.O.W.'! It was so cute.

The funny thing is, two days previous, I dressed her in warm winter clothing and said to myself, 'If I dress her in snow clothes, maybe the snow will come'. That was Thursday, when she looked like this:
















That's not a skunk next to her, it's our cat, Sammy. He is such a huge furball. He is sweet with Jader, though. He's been a great cat for her to torture love.

And on Saturday, it looked like this outside.
















I think it worked. I say 'WOW', too! Hopefully some of my other dreams and prayers will come true like that, too.
