Waking up with our noses pressed to the windows, resulted in another hollow blow with not a snowflake in sight. Growing up in Ohio, I often find myself wishing for snowy days for my kids like the ones I grew up with, but raising them in North Carolina typically doesn't lend itself to such luck.
School was called off last night with the potential of snow, (a huge perk of living in the south) but when we all rushed to see how much had fallen this morning, there. was. nothing. Not even a speck.
"At least we didn't have to go to school", one of the kids mumbled - but then - a few hours later, grumbles were replaced with an eight year old scream heard 'round the world.
"IT'S SNOWING!!!"
Rushing back to the windows, sure enough it was. Little by little...then a lot by a lot...snow began to fall. It's still coming down as I write and I don't know if we've ever seen this much since we've lived here.
I'm sure there are people in the south that hate the very thought of this day, but for an Ohio girl and everyone else in the house, it couldn't be better...even if it only lasts for a minute.
*+*HAPPY SNOW DAY!!!*+*
