Like most people in the Pacific Northwest, the onset of spring is a welcome arrival. However, earlier this week, we received a surprise snowfall!
When I say snowfall, I mean eight inches! This threw a curve into my schedule, causing me to cancel events with family and friends. However, the beauty and magic of snow - in the middle of April - is something that I couldn't help but enjoy. Every story for children that I've ever written, has included nature, trees, and snow! I took the opportunity to spend time on our snow-covered property, savoring the unexpected transformation and listening to the trees creak and crack.
