Wordless Wednesday: Carpe Diem...
Wednesday, January 13, 2010 Posted by Jolly Mom
Last week, Atlanta actually got some snow. Not a lot, but in Georgia any snow--even flurries--is cause for excitement. So, at midnight--Mike and I woke Lucas up to play in the snow. We figured that by morning the snow could be all gone. Why miss this moment? Needless to say, Lucas loved it. And, so did we.

I LOVE that you woke him up. To me that says a whole lot of good stuff about your parenting. :)

How cool! Some parts of Florida reported flurries. My oldest said, "We missed the snow?!" Ummm...We just left a foot of snow in NC. I guess she was excited that it snowed here for once. I might have woke my kids up for a snow at midnight too.

How fun that you woke him up to play in it. He looks like he had a great time.

You're so funny, waking him up at Midnight. We did that too when we first moved to Memphis.
Great happy pics of your boy!
Happy WW!

How sweet! You rock, mama!

How exciting! We live in coastal VA and know exactly what you mean. Looks like you got more than we did last week. My kids were really hoping for enough to play in, but it was pretty bare.
Great shots.

Great pictures. I am glad Lucus enjoyed the short lived snow.
Happy WW!

We got 3 1/2 inches this year-- we usually just get a dusting too! I love that you woke him up so that he didn't miss it!! Happy WW!

I'm in North Florida, and woke up about 3 or 4 times last Friday...just to see at least one flurry. Didn't happen. Happened south of me though! Lucky Lucas to get to play in the snow! I would've woken my kids up too!!
January 13, 2010 9:38 AM
I can't believe you woke him up..you two are like the coolest parents ever!
January 13, 2010 9:48 AM
That is making the best of it:-)

Oh yes it the best at night.

How fun! I would've woken mine up as well ;) Being from Texas, snow is still so magical to me, even after living in Virginia for 10 years!

Glad you did it! Living in the moment. I would have done the same thing!
Love the photos.

What a special memory he will have of that night. Very cool mom.

It must be so fun to have snow when you do. We get it all the time where we live. Hubby loves it because he goes skiing. I don't like to drive in it but it is very pretty at times. I'm happy you guys enjoyed this rare event. :)

That's such a wonderful thing to do for your child when they don't get to see much snow!
I bet he was just so thrilled :D
January 14, 2010 6:44 PM
Aw, what a sweet memory to be treasured! :)

Piera, he is going to remember that forever... and be telling all his friends and his kids about this time that it snowed when he was little and his mom and dad were SO COOL that they woke him up at midnight just so he could play in it! I can hear him now, "Don't I have just the bestest parents in the WHOLE world???"
You guys ROCK!!
