We had a white Christmas when I was a baby. And when Elder Child was two, it snowed but didn’t stick on Christmas Eve.
Just now, I looked outside at two minutes ‘til midnight after a whole day of the forecast calling for snow & finally saw three flakes in the air.
I’ll take it.
Elder Child, who has their own phone now, came rushing downstairs, opened the back door, and squealed in delight.
It is in fact snowing. And while it’s after midnight, I haven’t gone to bed, so it still counts as Christmas for me.
This is a first within my memory.
Achievement unlocked: snow on Christmas.
