THIS is what I see out my window:















I know You have a lot on Your plate right now, what with starvation, war, death, and all, and I know that I have a lot of great blessings and I'm probably not in a position to be asking any favors right now, but all that considered, if You could maybe find a minute to just make sure that all this snow sticks around, and I mean, really sticks around, and even accumulates for a while, just long enough for me to FINALLY BUILD A SNOWMAN, I would be super grateful. I mean, SUPER GRATEFUL. I'm just saying.

Love,
Tricia

Dear Child of Mine: It is not as if I Am keeping score on Snowmen, but My Memory Book lists at least one previous Snowman created by your hand. How about a Snow Woman?

Whooooooaaaa..... God's name is Tara? Um, and yes. Totally. As soon as You give me enough snow, I will make that a Snow Woman. Promise.

I think people from sunny California and scorching, searing, not-for-amateurs Texas have a thing for snow.

We LIVE for just one snow day a year. There is a 5 foot tall realistic fake snowman in our yard right now, constructed from a roll of chicken wire and about 20 yards of fluffy white quilt batting. I'm not taking it down until it really snows. I left the icy blue LEDs and the spotlight on it, too. It's not Christmas decor, it's WINTER decor.

I hope you get your wish. You know, you can make a little bitty miniature snowman and photograph it and no one will know it's dashboard sized.

Did you get your snowman, Frosty?
