So unlike me….. I am at a loss for words. I tried to just leave a thank you for this post…..But it just wasn’t enough. When I first saw the title to your post, I thought ahhhh Moi is back! And he is calling us all flakes.
The smile still danced on my face as I read about your family coming here, about your tale of your first snow storm.
My smile faded as I continued to read the rest………………

My dad HATED winter and snow with a passion. Now I too hate the snow. This past winter we had record breaking snow fall, it snowed the night my dad took his life. I threw up just looking at it, and did so with every snowflake that fell till Spring came. I have wondered how I am to survive living here this coming winter and all the winters to come, with this hate in my heart. Perhaps, thinking of your post here today, of Moi surviving to make his first snow angel…. Perhaps this will help.

Moi, as much as I dearly love your humor, I felt honored today that you shared this part of your life. Thank you for sharing a glimpse into “you” ~Nikki
