Boys out in the yard playing in the snow.
Mother does routine check, to make sure no one is bleeding and there is no fighting going on.
Spies child sitting on top of his overturned sled sobbing.
Opens door, asks what's wrong.
Child has taken glove off and his hand is cold and hurts.
Asks child, if he remembers when he did the EXACT same thing yesterday.
Child responds in the affirmative.
Go outside.
Help child warm hand and replace glove.
Have YET ANOTHER conversation about LEAVING GLOVES ON AT ALL TIMES WHEN OUTSIDE.
Child says... "Except if my snowpants fall down, right mom?"
Heeeeeee!!
Sorry about all that snow, feel free to send me some.
:)

I'm hoping that by the time Holly finishes high school she will have one pair of gloves that last all winter long...

At least he's not too cool to wear his gloves, like my kid! Although, a toque is okay, gloves are not. Maybe it has to do with the pants falling down?
