To indulge Eva’s greatest wish, Mother Nature blessed us with snow this week. It was just over an inch and the whole city shut down. I still laugh about the mayhem that accompanies snow around here. But the good part for me and Eva was…no school!
However, the mere fact that we could have slept in, prompted Eva to get up before her alarm. Seems fair. The first thing Eva wanted to do when she saw the snow was text Grandpa to tell him. She was so excited!
And even though we woke up early - and I hate waking up early - we had a fantastic day off! We did lots of snow-day kinds of things. Like:
Playing in the snow…
Building a snowman named Snowy…
Having a snowball fight…
Climbing a tree, even though it was slippery…
And having marshmallows with a little hot chocolate.
Aika ran around and frolicked like he was a puppy again.
We also watched movies for the entire afternoon before Eva scurried off to her friend's birthday party while Mykey and I went out to dinner.
My, what a good day! I wish every day was a snow day.
But not really – I kinda hate snow.
