Snow Day!








Yeah! We had a snow day yesterday! Snow days are on the long list of why I love being a teacher...that unexpected day off that you are not penalized for. Plus, the fact that you don't have to drive clutching the wheel to work on those days. Cian was so happy that it snowed that he didn't really get too excited about no school. He was just excited to go and play outside. I convinced him to wait, seeing as though it was only 6:30 and still kind of dark outside. To help him wait, I put on a Tom and Jerry which was a big deal to him because we don't watch TV on school day mornings. He really caught on to the benefits of a snow day then! 8:00 hit and he was out the door and ringing our neighbors door bell. I felt a little bad, but I knew it was going to rain by late morning and if there was to be sledding that day....8:00 was the time! Luckily, Cade our next door 8 year old neighbor was up and they had a blast. Cian could have stayed outside all day. He loves the snow! After a warm up with Hot cocoa, Cian and I started in on our Christmas cookies. It was so fun. I am so enjoying this age...we have real conversations and I am seeing his development from last year when we made cookies. He was able to do all the tasks with minimal help. So cool! I love this little boy so much!

Did the snow melt? I don't know if I should be excited or nervous about the snow! We fly in 6 days....hopefully!
