It's a snow day today! We actually don't have any snow, yet, but we have ice, and the snow is coming later today. I don't care....I'm thrilled that I don't have to 1) scrape the ice off the van, 2) get dressed before 8 AM, 3) get the girls to the bus stop with ice on the ground.... I'm also glad (this time) that our news makes a HUGE deal about these coming storms, because since they did, I decided to get to the grocery store last night instead of this morning, like I always do (Friday morning is my grocery shopping day--I'm not sure why, it's just kind of the pattern I've fallen into in the last several years). I saw that today was supposed to be bad, and changed my plans yesterday so that I could get there last night. Even though it was SO packed (because everyone else was freaking out about the storm, too) and they were out of a bunch of things on my list, I still got the essentials, and my pantry is no longer bare on a day when I can't go out. I'm hoping tomorrow will be better and I can go back and get the remainder of the things on my list.
The girls are so excited about the prospect of playing in the snow later. I'm excited that Rachel is here to entertain Rebecca! :) Yesterday morning Rachel was sad when I told her it was time to get to the bus stop because the two of them had been playing together so nicely for at least 30 minutes, and she didn't want to stop. Here's hoping today is a day like that....and not a day of screaming, arguing, and separating them, because we certainly have those days, too!

Lucky you! We were hoping for a 2 hour delay, but didn't get one! We did enjoy some sledding after school though. HOpe you guys had a fun day. I can't believe we have snow already!
