Little Flamingo's Little World: November 2010

Little Flamingo's Little World

Once upon a time there was a bird called Flamingo. She had a baby bird that she named Little Flamingo, or Flaminguito. By the time Flaminguito turned one year old, she was doing a lot of funny things that Flamingo wanted to share with all the other birds in her flock. When a friend from the monkey exhibit at the Zoo told her about a blog, she decided to start one of her own...then two little baby blue birds came along and she added their antics to her blog, too...this is Flaminguito's blog.

Snow, Snow, Snow...snow!!!

As we're tucking our little girl into bed on Sunday night, she says, 'Daddy, Mommy...don't forget to wake me if it starts snowing." "Okay, goodnight, little one...we love you."
Then, three hours later, around 10:30, we peek outside before going to bed and notice it's started snowing. We ask ourselves, "are we crazy?" as I walk into her room to wake her up. We told her we'd do it and we never lie to our children... So as I gently call to her and say, "it's snowing, honey," she shoots both eyes open. pulls her lips tight and the corners of her mouth turn down in wonder at what I'm saying. She asks, "really, it really is?!" Then I carry her to the window and she looks outside and sweetly whispers..."Thank you, God." Then watches the flakes fall almost as fast as her eyelids closing again. It was worth keeping the promise. Enjoy the pictures by double clicking on the image below.
