in the morning when it was still dark

if i had to rank the sweetest, most touching moments of my life, this morning would definitely rank in the top ten.

it was early early this morning - still dark like the middle of the night - and i wake up like you do when you need to roll over. matt reaches for me and asks "are you awake?" tired, half-asleep, and not knowing what is going on, i manage to whine "not really." but seeing as i'm awake enough to respond to him, he tells me that he looked out the window and it was snowing, and he wanted me to know.

i love snow. i've been waiting (rather impatiently) for snow this season. it means the world to me to know that matt knows me well enough and even cares enough about my silly quirks to wake me up so i can see the first snowfall of the year. maybe no one who reads this will truly understand what i'm feeling, but this is so special to me.

happy snow day!
