It snowed overnight. This is rare - I can only remember one previous occasion here in 5 years. So when the kids got up, rather grumpy, we gently nudged them towards looking out of the window. This is not hard, as their morning routine usually consists of getting out of bed, going to the toilet, climbing into our bed, then climbing out to peer through the curtains and do a weather forecast. Quite often it can be sunny with blue skies, and we'll be told that it's going to rain later. That's a fair bet, and it's probably how the BBC weather forecasters work out what to say.

So anyway, this morning the curtain was pulled back and ... all of a sudden two little grump-monsters turned into excited, bubbly, charming kids. And we rolled over and enjoyed the extra space in the bed, and a warm fuzzy feeling inside. A nice way to start the day.
