Snow Day

It’s a snow day! I love the snow. The only reason why Iowa was on the list was for its snow.  Truth be told, it hasn’t quite measured up.  This is our third year, and I don’t think we are expecting anything spectacular.  Since I have a hero husband and two grown kids commuting in the weather, I’m not as heartbroken as I could be.

We raised our first two kids in snow, living for five years at an elevation of over 5000 ft with snow, glorious snow, filling our winter months.  I will always remember looking out the window at just the right moment to watch an evergreen timber silently from the neighbor’s yard over our fence.  It was awe-inspiring.

Either way, here we are, on a snowy-more-icy day with the girls playing with the neighbors.  These are the good old days.
