SnOw DaY!

Two Fridays ago, we had a SNOW DAY! Our first one of the school year! What a pleasant surprise, being a teacher on a morning of a possible delay/ snow day takes me back to being a kid. How many times can I hit the refresh button on the web page to just hope my school will pop up next??? I get this adrenaline rush that doesn't go away, and in fact, it stays so long that I'm awake at 5:30 and not even tired anymore. Maybe, someday, I will figure out how to control my excitement and enjoy sleep more.

I typically get a text if school is delayed or closed around 5:45 - 6, I probably make some comment like, "yes" or "finally" or "yippee"! I then hear my husband grumble, "snow day? congratulations" in the most sarcastic, jealous tone ever! I can't help but smile! I LOVE SNOW DAYS!

Flynne & I enjoyed our snow day together to the fullest. We made rounds to my grandmas, her great-grandmas. We went to Grandma Emmons' for lunch (yummy) and then after her afternoon nap we went to Grandma Hubers.

Taking Flynne to my grandmas houses made me realize just how great of a setup we have for Flynne in our living room, and how hard it is to take her somewhere that is not baby proofed! Much much easier to have people to our house, especially when they have stuff EVERYWHERE!

I feel very blessed when I get to spend extra unexpected days with Flynne, and they only make me want to stay home more! I also feel blessed to get to visit my grandmas and let Flynne play & read with them :) "What an awesome day," that's what grandpa Emmons would have said!
