Sleds - a Ukrainian custom
I have conversations with people all over the world and one thing these conversations have in common is one question….”what is your weather like?” I think that you will agree that the weather this year has been the strangest. All I hear from people in the States is how cold it is there. My mother was visiting in Georgia she has been delayed returning to Oklahoma because of the ice storm. But here….where it usually has snow on the ground from November to March or April has only had flurries until today. Today we have 1-2 inches.
Instead of taking their children out in a stroller, they pull them to the store or for walks on a sled. I enjoy the sight of a mom or dad pulling the sled along with their child. This year the sleds have been put up on the shelf due to lack of snow. Today as I peeked out the window to see the snow, the sleds are out again. I am sure the kids are rejoicing.
