Since it started snowing on December 19 Ralph wanted to play in the
snow.
I kept coming up with some excuse or other, mostly valid, but thought maybe I could get Uncle Nick to play with Ralph outside for
a bit on the Sunday (December 23) following the storm which would allow Henry to
stay inside where I wouldn’t worry about any breathing issues as a result of
playing outside.
Grandpa had other
ideas and roped a few sleds up to the tractor.
Grandma joined Ralph and Uncle
Nick teamed up with Henry on the first couple rounds; then Ralph went solo.
The boys then rode by themselves while
laying on their stomachs.
Henry
escaped to the indoors following the sled rides; Ralph stayed out just for a
bit longer.
Ralph was overheard saying
something about “This is what I had planned to do”.
Mission accomplished.
The boy was happy.
I think we all had fun - and luckily Henry's breathing issues were not affected by the time outside.
