if it's snowin' in brooklyn (remember Ferron?)

Just yesterday I was bemoaning the fact that we hardly ever get snow. Not like when I was a kid and we had to walk 2 miles to school in it... not really, I grew up in Manhattan, school was two blocks away. Anyway, my little boy loves snow and it finally snowed and he spent hours playing in it. And now I'm remembering why snow is not so fun when you are the mother because my house is filled with random wet articles of clothing on every floor, radiator and rug - gloves, sweaters, socks, shoes, coats...
