Let It Snow! Let It Snow! Let It Snow!

Mom kept tellin’ me, "just wait ‘til it snows".  Boooyyyy, was she right!  Snow is the best thing since my swimming pool in Spring!  I totally LOVE IT!  I couldn’t figure out what the big deal was when there were a few white tufts here and there a week ago.  Now I totally understand!  We got 4 inches yesterday, I romped and played like no tomorrow.  Dad kicked up snow in my face and I chomped at it like incoming fighter planes attacking my home front!  I went to bed peacefully- tired from a hard day defending my home front….Little did I know….  I got up to go outside to potty today and, quite frankly-  Holy Smokes!!!!  That white stuff was up to my chest!  Potty Time was an entirely new challenge.  Mom shoveled a spot for me to do my business but that was NOT for me.  I romped out into the wild white yonder and found a spot of my own!  My mom said, "Whoop, whoop, whoop- that MUST be cold!  She was right- but there was NO WAY I was about to do things her way.  Let’s remember, I’m my own girl!  I’ll do things how I see fit!  Mom and I had a great time playing in the snow.  Our back yard was the only one of our neighbors that suffered the damage of play-time.  All the other yards looked peaceful and pristeen.  I’m proud of the destruction I laid in my wake.  Mom won’t admit it but so is she.  She kicked snow over me and I snorted at it.  She stepped toward me and I pulled away from her and started my rounds about the yard- tearing up any snow that laid in my wake.  She threw snowballs and I chased and sniffed them out.  We took breaks throughout the day and I lazed by mom as she wrapped presents- of course after a couple where wrapped I laid my head on her arm to tell her I "had to potty" just to get her outside once again.  Pop came home and commented on the destruction of the snow in the yard, Com’on Poppa! Don’t you know me by now???  For my fellow pups that don’t understand- imagine 8 inches of cotten balls around you are far the eye could see with a cool peppermint patty sort of feeling around your legs, and body, if you’re a little guy!
