We bought Ryder a snow globe yesterday for fun- so he could get excited about the impending snow. He stared at it for hours, turning it this way, and that.....shaking it upside down, watching the snow swirl around the happy snow man. At bedtime, he wanted it right beside him, so it could snow in his room before it started snowing outside. He picked it up....and then...crrraasshhh.. shattered to a million pieces on the hardwood. His face was red, and he whimpered, "I'm sowwy Mommy.." Poor guy...I gave him a hug and told him that it would still snow, as I tucked him into bed. This morning, he was enthralled. He's loving the snow- and I told him the snow man was happy too. He was free from his snow globe, and he got to feel REAL snow.... Have a wonderful snow-filled evening..

"and i told him the snow man was happy too." --- it sounds really good for a children's book. you might want to expound it into a ten page picture book. that would be awesome. =D
and i love the pic. i can see the shattered glass. =D
Thanks Marge! Yeah, he was so upset at first, his face was priceless as far as true "sowwiness" goes. It really would make a cute children's book wouldn't it? Maybe I should get on that!! =)
I know a very talented illustrator.
the pic is worth a thousand words. oh, there are so many morals that can be said through this story! i really do hope you turn it into a book ... with your boy as the star.
