Yesterday morning I was on the phone with Aunt Missy as I was getting the kids in the car to drive to the bus stop. We were talking about work. We got in the car and my phone synced with the car so everyone could hear our conversation. John started talking to me and I looked back and realized his coat wasn’t zipped. I said “John zip up your coat it’s cold out!” This was probably the second or third time I yelled at the kids during my conversation with Aunt Missy. She took this as an opportunity to tell the kids “Guys, you better listen to Mommy because if you don’t the snow won’t come to your house. It will snow everywhere else and you won’t be able to play in it.” She quickly hung up and I was left with two kids that didn’t understand. John said “How is that possible?” Gillian said “I don’t understand.” I said “Well where does snow come from?” Gillian didn’t know. I said “It comes from the North Pole. And who else to we know that lives in the North Pole?” She said “Santa!” I then asked “Isn’t Santa the most magical person ever?” Gilly said “Well elves are magic too!” I said “Exactly, the North Pole is magic. So snow must be magic too!” She was totally on board until we heard John say “Well actually snow is made from tiny water particles in the air. It doesn’t come from the North Pole.” He totally debunked my whole story. Oh well, I think snow is magic.
