Snow isn't so bad after all

Well it has finally happened, Kyler has become not only accustomed to the snow that once paralized him, but has actually grown to love it. We went on a walk yesterday and I was surprised to find him asking to get nearer to the snow. So I helped him up to it and the next thing I know he's grabbing a handful and throwing it at me (Travis didn't tell me he had taught him this trick!) So there we stood having a snowball fight . . .which was really just us throwing snow up into the air. I'm sure if anyone had looked out their windows would have thought that we had both lost our minds, throwing snow up as high as we could and laughing hysterically (Alright so no one would doubt the sanity of a two year old doing that but a 23 year old . . .) But his immense love didn't stop there, the next thing I know he's jamming handfuls of it in his mouth and with a big grin on his face saying "mmmm, yum!" and rubbing his tummy! It was such a fun walk and I couldn't help just taking a moment and just being overwhelmed with appreciation for being blessed with a little man who makes me take a moment and enjoy the simple things! How did I get so lucky?
