Turn On The Christmas!

We had snow for the first time this season. Zach was so excited. He was sitting at the table, eating breakfast and I said, "Zach, you want to see something really cool?" He said, "Uh-huh..." I threw open the curtains and said, "ITS SNOWING!!" He jumped off his chair and ran to the window and said, "TURN ON THE CHRISTMAS!!" He went on and on and about Christmas and how he wanted to build a snow man. He kept looking at the snow and saying, "Forty minutes til Christmas, mom. Forty minutes." He loved making footprints and shoveling the snow. We built a castle with sand toys from summer and then he smashed them down. Zach had so much fun and played outside for about 45 minutes today. And I was worried we'd be cooped up. Such a cute, fun age for snow.

Kids have such strange thought patterns. Where did he, at age 3, begin to associate Christmas and snow? Last Christmas, he was in San Diego and Alameda. Neither place had snow. How did he get a concept of 40 minutes, and make that as the time until Christmas? Little guys have such weird wiring.
