I looked at him with my "hey-lil-boy-you-are-actually-not-very-nice" face, what irritated him and he frowned. At that time I changed my facial expression into a very big grin (kids usually can't resist) what irritated him even more.
At this moment I looked to his brother who really couldn't resist and tried hard to refrain from laughing. When I smiled at him, he gave up and smiled back.
Elias, who was observing his older brother and me smiling, suddenly burst out laughing "HAHAHAHAH", very loud (and I mean VERY loud!) so that I couldn't help but laughing, too! (All the people in the bus probably thought I was one sandwich short of a picnic...)
After that happy ending of a not-screaming-toddler-in-the-bus, that little guy didn't stop grinning at me! He showed all his teeth - and that was SO funny I decided to grab my cellphone (comes with a camera) and take a picture.
You should have seen Elias' eyes... They turned big and round and he asked me totally amazed: "did you take my picture??????"
I said: "Yes, I did!"
"Ooohh! Can I see it?"
"Of course!"
The older one: "Take one of me, too!!!" what I did. "Let me see. Oh that's me and him. Can I have one that shows only me?" And the friendly, totally unknown auntie [me] went on taking pictures of totally unknown kids...
Finally I got a really good shot of both, just before we all had to get off the bus.
That experience was so delighting I couldn't stop smiling almost the whole day...

awwww! and I love your expression, "one sandwich short of a picnic"...hahahahaha
Hi Tina, those kids are a mess. Most kids are. I have standing orders that if my grandchildren cry in public places to give them(when very little) ice cream. That will get them back in a good mood.
I like your snow and the snow pictures. That is a good idea to make a video of it falling. I have a YouTube (I am Jim1Jim1) of heavy rain and wind during our Hurricane Ike.
Neither video is very exciting.
