Lesson of the Day! ;)

When it snowed Sunday we played in the snow & made a snowman with Noah. He decided to name him Rudolph :) Every day since then, he looks outside to see Rudolph. Well today the temp finally got above freezing & more snow melted. Noah looked out the window at Rudolph. His pine-cone hair had fallen off from the melted snow & there were no more Hersey Kisses eyes or Peanut M&M mouth. He burst into tears because his snowman was melting! I felt so bad for him & comforted him. I explained to him that it's just snow & we get it sometimes but it melts. And it goes away but it's still ok. He was still upset & went to his room crying. About 15 minutes later he comes back into the living room smiling & says "Mom! I'm happy now! That just means we have more grass!" :) So the Lesson of the Day is 'Be happy with what you have & don't worry about what you don't have!' :) Gotta love kids & their fresh perspective!
