Zoe wakes up one morning to see lots of new snow on the ground.
Zoe: Papa, il ya beacoups de neige encore.
(Papa, there’s lot’s of snow on the ground.)
Papa: Oui, Zoe a dormis si longtemps qu’elle a dormis a travers toute le primptemps et il est maintenaint l’hiver encore.
(Yes, Zoe slept so long, that you slept right through spring and it is winter again.)
Zoe is now looking very upset.
Papa: Nooon! Papa compte une blague. C’est encore le primtemps, mais des fois il neige.
(Noooo!, Papa is pulling your leg. It’s still spring, sometimes it snows in the spring.)
Zoe looks much relieved.
Nana feels the same way about the “beacoups de neige” and is very happy to have green grass showing beside all the spring flowers which are beginning to bloom.
