Snowdays

The boys had a snow day today. Not because we had oh-so-much snow, but because they already had an early release scheduled for today.If they had put the school day on delay, as had the rest of the schools around us, then the kids would be in school for a whopping 2 hrs so ThePowersThatBe just opted to cancel it entirely, thereby cancelling MY day, too. That, of course, led to boys hanging out in the cold-ass snow, with a wind blowing like crazy around them (which they ignored). They inundated each other with snowballs and rolled around like puppies in their first snowfall. After wearing themselves down a bit, they opted to move it to the front yard, to attempt a snowman with snow that wasn't cooperating. Ryan is notorious for eating snow (no, NOT yellow, thanks!) and I catch him constantly licking it off his gloves. And was sorely unhappy when I told him he shouldn't because God Only Knew What He'd Touched. All in all, not a bad day. They enjoyed their outside time, managed to get along without arguing all day and even *gasp* cleaned their bedroom this evening without major disagreement. Not a bad day. Happy Tuesday. N.
