Why do I love snow? Snow is awesome! Snow is great!
Some people think that snow is a nuissance, a menace, and a mess. But I'm of a different persuasion. I LOVE snow. I love the first snow of the season, the overnight kind. I love waking up with that warm fuzzy feeling inside, looking out the window and seeing the ground covered in the fluffy white stuff. I love when it it falls and sticks to my scarf and eyelashes. I love walking in from the snow and watching the crystals melt off of me - like magic!
I love all the stuff you can make with snow: snow forts, snowballs, snow people, snow angels - we even made a snow couch out on our porch! I love tobogganing on it, skiing and falling in it, digging tunnels, and throwing it. My dog loves to dig in it and eat it.
I even love the cold, windy winter days when the snow blows around. I love watching it swirl as it comes down off my roof. I love coming in from days like that and feeling the tingle as my toes and nose thaw out. I love the feeling of long underwear and thick fuzzy socks. I love the hot chocolate and good warm cooking. I love sleeping covered in six thick comfy blankets - like a nest.
I love winter and I love snow! Go outside and enjoy some snow today!

Okay okay, so this isn't really a poem, or a column...or anything...just go outside and play in the snow, okay?
