We had a snowstorm yesterday, although it didn’t end up dropping more than a couple of inches of snow. I had to go out and pick up Mom, Charles and Alice so they wouldn’t get snowed in and of course, it basically stopped snowing as we were on the final stretch back home (so instead of rescue before the worst, we were out driving in it).
Anyway, the road home passes by a woods and as we went by every branch on every tree was dusted with snow. Charles called out “look at that!” and I thought he was admiring the beautiful sight of the frosted forest. So I replied “yes, the trees are very pretty”. “No!” said Charles, “what that sign do?” (by which he meant “what does the sign say and what does it mean?”). My son, even more of an oblivious geek than I am. *sniff* It makes a Dad proud.
