Marshmallow cars and snow angels

Kenneth and Laura are having a snack - a very un-Cameroonian snack of marshmallows and chocolate chips, both of which are rare treats there. And, of course, every food object is a vehicle to 4-yr. old Kenneth, so they are having races on the table with their marshmallows!

And the snow! Kenneth didn't remember snow, being just a baby last time he was in North America, and Laura had never seen it, so they are having so much fun. Snowmen; snowballs; snow angels, sledding in in the snow. Endless hours of amusement!

If only we as adults would be so easily amused. Instead, we surf the internet (oh, how I love high-speed internet, a dream when we're in isolated Bekondo, Cameroon), play computer games, and misuse our time in other ways. Makes you think....
