With up to 15 inches of snow and 35 mph wind surging up as far as 50mph, nature decided that we all needed to stay home today. The Interstate was closed through much of the state and most businesses even conceded to letting employees stay home. Unfortunately, Dad has a big project implementing AND computer access from home so no snow day for him!
Call me selfish but I decided that I deserve a snow day as well. Yes, I have two kids home all day to entertain. But we don't have to run about to therapy! Darn it, we deserve a day to be lazy (or couch potatoes as I explained to JP) !
Aside from this blog, I aspire to read a book. I checked it out from the library 3 weeks ago. I am on page 5. I renewed it once and it is due back next week. I AM going to read it! And believe it or not, it is not about Autism!!!
Before declaring a full blown day off, I made sure we did one activity. The boys were a bit weary at first but then they had a blast. We played in the snow for about an hour! Now don't worry I didn't bundle them up and send them out in the midst of a blizzard! I brought the blizzard to them...
JP isn't much for touching the cold snow but he helped with the snowmen and even donated Woody's cowboy hat.
He actually spent much of his time plowing Thomas into a snowbank and having Terrance help pull him out! It appears that this child has a script he can pull out in a moments notice!
Regardless, we all had a blast! T even ate a little bit!
