Snow Disappointment

For the third time this year, snow was predicted to fall in our Yishuv... and this time it actually did! When we woke up Friday morning, there was between 1-2 inches of snow on the ground (depending on drifting).

I was really excited to take out BSM for some serious fun. I found his snow pants, and boots, and hat and coat and mittens. I did not force him to wear a scarf, because it seemed to freak him out. I also did not manage to get a photo of him all dolled up, because he moves faster than the shutter of my camera.

But we did get outside well before the rising temperature and steady rain did too much damage, and I was ready to party. BSM on the other hand is... is... is... afraid of the snow. Argh! (He walked around for about 10 seconds, then asked to be picked up. Every time I tried to put him down in the snow after that, he clung to me unhappily. And yes, he totally let me put him down on bare patches. He also freaked out when I sat in the snow with him on my lap.)

I'm disappointed :(
