Well, The Child and I had fun in the snow yesterday. She’s got over the trauma of the car accident. To be honest, I think the walk home in the blizzard yesterday cured her of any trauma she may have incurred due the car crash. So, we went out and played in the snow in our back yard yesterday. The Child wanted to build a snowman, and so I helped. In the end we managed something quite impressive. It was almost as tall as The Child, and even had arms. The black pebbles for the face gave it a somewhat unhinged look I have to admit, but still, The Child and I were rather proud of ourselves. And the foliage hair was totally The Child’s idea. And the name. Daisy. Daisy the Snowman. Or should that be snowwoman?
Though it wasn’t as cold today as it was yesterday, and Daisy’s face has melted off. Well, the pebble eyes and nose and the bits of brick mouth have all fallen off. And she’s leaning in a somewhat dramatic manner. The Child isn’t too upset though. She knows she can build another snowman next time it snows. And I think she’s rather enjoying reporting Daisy’s latest status. She's just run through to inform me that Daisy’s leaning a bit more, and more of her hair’s fallen out. Bless her.
The hill wasn’t too lethal this morning either. But then again that’s probably because we still had snow. Now it’s melted a bit we’ll have ice I think. Skating to school tomorrow perhaps? Most likely. Grrrr.
