Guess what it snowed Friday night. This is our first snow of the season and it is so pretty. I just wish it would have waited for Christmas. One of the things my kids would do was go look out and see if there was snow on Christmas morning. Altho it is pretty, it helps us with the water in the summer for our gardens when it is so hot and dry.
I will never forget the time when there was a big snow on and we had what was called slate dumps, that is where the coal companys years ago dumped their slate I think from their coal. My son was out playing on one and he begain sliding and slide all the way down to the bottom into the creek . I still don't know how he got back up it , he said one of his cousins pushed him down. It was so steep and with snow on it, I just can't see a kid climbing back up it but he had the Lord on his side. I saw him come walking up the road and noticed how he was shaking. He was so cold he could not tell me what had happened until later. I got him warmed up and would you believe he never even got a cold, sore throat or fever and he was soaking wet. I thank God today for watching over him and letting him live. Every time I see snow that comes back to my memory what happened to him. He was only around 8 at the time. He did not wont to go to the er. said the Lord was going to let him be alright and he was.
Hope everyone has a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.
