poor little guy...it's time for spring

I watched the daily transformation from big robust snowman, to little lump of snow.  The kids tried to keep him alive the best they could.  Every time they passed by him on their way home from school, they made adjustments.  I watched as he thinned and shrunk.  His arms kept getting lower and lower, and they had to keep popping his eyes back in.

I'm grateful for the seasons, grateful for snow. And grateful now I can look forward to spring.  What are you grateful for?
