SNOWFLAKES ARE PARMESAN CHEESE
ICE CYCLES ARE PLASTIC
That was the assessment of our 3 year granddaughter, Juliet, of snow. She had come to visit us with her mother before Christmas here in New Mexico. This was the first time that we had gotten to know her as her older brother was always around and that doesn’t bode well to knowing either one. Her brother had come with her before when our daughter had come by herself and it was so much fun to get to know him. Since they live in San Antonia, Texas, Juliet had never seen snow so this was quite an experience for her. In their town, when the wind blows, it is “cold” to Juliet. San Antonio is similar to Phoenix, nice in the winter and hot in the summer. We had gotten some warm gloves and a bonnet for Juliet to be warm as they don’t have such things in San Antonio. Juliet and her mother walked around our big yard several times and seeing the ice cycles, she thought they were plastic as she had only seen plastic ice cycles.
Later on when we went out to see to see the pretty Christmas decorations on the houses, it was snowing lightly and she thought it looked like Parmesan cheese! I thought that was so cute, you can tell that they must use a lot of Parmesan cheese in their house!
Now at home, Juliet thinks they can fly on the plane any time and come here or if they are going to visit a relative in their town, she asks if they will fly and will there be snow! What ideas they get when they are small!
We enjoyed so much getting to know Juliet, she is so different from her older brother, of course. Her brother is so studious but fun, likes to learn new things all the time and she is more playful and definitely a girl, likes to play “mommy”.
A Good Day to You from the Merry Heart

Sounds like you had lots of fun while they were there. I am glad they got to come and visit you.
