Emma loves hot cocoa, especially after a fun snow day. We've had quite a few this winter. We get all bundled up and head out to the front yard. Sometimes Emma brings her baby doll and stroller and we walk up and down the sidewalk pushing baby doll through the snow drifts. It is a pretty funny sight I am sure.
Other times we build mini-snowmen because the snow is too dry to make a full-sized snowman. Other times we walk up and down the sidewalk, sitting in the drifts making "bum prints" in our neighbors' front lawns. Sometimes we make snow angels in our front lawn or go tromping through the yard making big foot prints. Or sometimes we crunch snowballs or ice chunks and watch the tiny pieces shoot off to the sides.
After one day of playing outside, we decided to save our hot cocoa drinking until after dinner when Daddy was home. So there we were sitting at the table, watching Emma scoop up the mini-marshmallows and suck up her cocoa.
Daddy asked, "Is it good?"
With a twinkle in her eye Emma replied, "Yes! It's better than milk."
