It’s been a while since I left teaching, but I still get excited about a really good snow day…the kind of snow day that makes the roads impassable and force the schools to close down. All five of us are home today enjoying each other’s company…we had a big pancake breakfast (except for Michael who just isn’t always into breakfast…he had a hoagie), and then we took the kids out to sled ride in the back yard. Sam is not digging the snow, but it could’ve been because his snow suit made it hard for him to walk and his mittens made it impossible to have any control over his fingers. Max and Ella are big fans of sledding though! This year we bought a new sled, the baby sled just wasn’t cutting anymore, so Ella and Max were able to sled together down the hill…no more waiting for a slow sibling to walk back up the hill with the sled. It’s a good day to cuddle by a fire. enjoy!
