Snowflakes bring back memories

I know, for a lot of you your thinking, "Whats the big deal about snow?". But for living in Florida for the last 3 years, then moving to Tennessee, seeing snow for the first time in 20+ years is pretty cool. It was exciting, my 7yr old ran out and had a smile on his face from ear to ear, it reminded me of growing up. Now it was just a dusting, there was only about a 1/4 inch on the car and that was it, but it was still snow. My son and I had a "snowball" fight, if you can call it that. Its my blog, so I guess I can. It was strange, but I got thinking about when I was his age, growing up and the vivid memories of those cherished "snow days". Snow seems to cover all the yuck and muck, and for a brief moment your world is silenced and pure. Now I know the yuck and the muck returns quickly as the streets get cleared and life starts to return to normal everyday grind for the adults, but as a child all I could think about was how quite it was after a snow fall. How the air seemed so pure. How the feeling of cold on your faces, your hands, was so refreshing. How the sound of snow crushed by my feet made me feel like a giant. Angels, snowmen, snowball fights, sled rides, and snowflakes. Those childhood memories...I hope they don't melt away like the snow.
