Rose Pink really loves her snowsuit this year.
It's pink.
It finally snowed in the middle of December, and there was a mad rush out the door.
Nut Brown has continued this habit all winter. When he goes out in the snow, he gets down on his hands and knees and eats it like a puppy.
Rose Pink's snowsuit is a bit distinctive (she LOVES it). Last week she saw her buddy Layton out with his dad in the back, and jumped into her gear to go out and play. We can see their backyard from our back door, and Rose Pink knows her limits, so we didn't really watch her too closely. We noticed that she was out of sight, and when she didn't reappear or answer when Mr. Brown called her, he went out to see if he could find her. He tromped around and saw a group of people sledding on the Wal-Mart hill. One of them was wearing a very pink snowsuit. So he came home and told me that she'd gone sledding with Layton's family.
She came home about fifteen minutes later and told us that she'd been sledding with people she didn't know. What?!? we said, more than a little startled. We thought you were out with Layton and his parents!
Oh, no, she said blithely. Layton went inside. I saw them sledding so I went over to watch them.
Her single-minded parents said, But we thought you were with Layton and his family!
No, she said. And it wasn't his next-door neighbor either. It was some people I didn't know at all.
Gulp, said her parents. Well, we're glad you had fun. Do you play with people you don't know very often?
No, she said. This is the first time.
