It’s supposed to snow this week, which reminds me of a moment four years ago when it snowed. We were from Phoenix, which meant our children had spent their lives experiencing the two seasons of blazingly hot and nice. The only thing that changed color in the fall were the license plates of all the people ditching this thing called snow, which we were about to discover in Oregon.
When we first moved here, people told us that it wouldn’t snow much.
“It’ll just be a dusting on the ground and then it will melt. You won’t need snow shovels or chains on your tires.”
While that’s generally true, we actually experienced a massive snow storm where the snow actually stuck. While the snow lasted, my kids played with it all the time.
All the time.
