The beautiful and the dreadful
The big boy emailed me this pictures taken from his parents’ yard on Christmas day.
Aren’t they beautiful?
But, I know better that winter and cold are dreadful for a person growing up in the tropics. Bouts of the dreadful sniffles, cracked lips and nose bleeds are no fun, mind you. I really dread the cold that chilled to the bone, the cold that froze the fingers and joints until I couldn’t walk. I never expected the big boy to want to move from sunny California to chilly Illinois.
For those who have never lived in cold winter before.. I’ll have to let you know it gets really cold even if you are indoors.. you will freeze your butt off if you do not have adequate heat and these UGG boots to keep your feet warm. If anyone wants to migrate to the States.. make sure you choose places like California, Hawaii or Florida, else.. very cold!
