"It's fogging from the trees!"

Oliver is very quickly picking up on this talking thing.  He is also really into Christmas movies, which means he has figured out what snow is...kind of.  He knows what snow looks like.  But, being that we live in good ole Southeast Texas and nowhere near a "White Christmas" region, he has never seen snow.  Last week we had a heavy fog advisory in the area, and Oliver got REALLY excited when he saw a blanket of fog in the yard.  He immediately ran out into it laughing.

Oliver: "It's snowing, Mama!"
Me: "That's not snow, bud.  It's fog."
Oliver: "It's fogging!!! From the trees!"

He really did not care that this was not actually snow.  To him, it looked just like the snow on TV (give him a break, he's two).   As for it's "fogging from the trees", I can only assume he was talking about the water droplets that fall from the trees when its really foggy.  He took a few minutes to run in circles in the yard before I made him get in the car.  (He literally runs in circles, going "Run in Circles!  Run in Circles!"  I've come to learn this means he is really excited. )

Given that you NEVER know what type of weather to expect on Christmas around here, Oliver may get his white Christmas after all, and apparently he will be satisfied with fog or snow.  Can't wait for that kid to get back from his Daddy's so we can finish up our Christmas preparations.
