Snow Angel


I was awake all last night, fretting about the snow piling up outside, worrying about making it to Andree's memorial service. I could have made it, but never on time since the roads were so icy, so I opted to stay home. The kids had late start school, but I was super grouchy from being awake all night, as well as the guilt from missing the service, and as I watched them playing in the snow I just decided we'd all take the day off. No one loved a snow day more than Mrs. Rice, so we made a snow "angel" in honor of her. Then, we made hot chocolate. Twice. Then, Henry decided to make a "Snow Mitch", and I realized why he named it after his dad when I saw him foraging in the woods for dry moss to put under the armpits and on the butt of his snowdad. Boy, howdy am I glad I kept him home from school for this.
