I know you are, but what am I? Already missing Pee-wee

Paul Reubens' iconic character lives on in our sense of joy, playfulness, wonder

Every winter or late fall, when I peek out my window and see the first snows blanketing North Idaho, I call my mom to announce: “It’s snowing, Pee-wee!” If she sees the snow first, she calls or texts me the Pee-wee line. We’ve done this for years, a throwback to the absolute joy Pee-wee and his friends experience as it snows on the playhouse just in time for Christmas.
