I tried to tell them.
“There’s not really enough snow for playing. It’s just a dusting. You can see most of the grass, for goodness sakes!”
“No, Mommy, see?” Carson pointed out the window. “There’s snow all over the driveway!”
Well, they did cancel school. I guess it wouldn’t have been a real snow day if we hadn’t:
1. Taken 45 minutes to find all the hats, mittens, and boots.
2. Taken another 45 minutes to get dressed in double layers.
3. Made a snow angel in what little snow there was
4. Played for two minutes outside before:
a. Someone needed to pee
b. Someone complained of being freezing cold
5. Came inside and undressed, leaving a pile of wet clothes in a heap on the floor
6. Had hot chocolate:
a. With marshmallows
Truth? I love these days as much as they do.
My 5yo woke up yesterday morning and insisted we make a snowman. Even though we didn’t get much more snow than you.

That’s how snow days go at our house too!
Love it! This was about how much we got in TX where I grew up, if we ever got any, so yes, it was always very exciting as a kid.
That hot chocolate looks good even though it’s 70 degrees here today…
That totally made me smile. I love the way kids think. Even a little snow is enough. That’s good stuff, Jennifer.
