Hot, Freezing, Rain and then Hot Again

What a week!  I was in shorts Monday night covering the plants before the ice storm came in the next morning...and it sure did!  The schools were closed while we had 30 or below weather of ice and snow. This lasted through Thursday morning. For the two days the kids were out of school, we stayed inside because it was so cold. I had to work so I did make Collin write or read a littl in the home offic with me. So mean, right?!?!

He also had friends come over or he went to their house. We did open a few stocking stuffers he had not had a chance to open yet. One was a crystal making kit. Might have been too cold to do but we did it anyway ... and no crystals so far. 😢

When it was time to go back to school, everyone was ready. Even though it was 26 degrees, Collin “forgot” to wear his jacket and chose to wear shorts. Dad would have made him change but he was already volunteering as the Crossing Guard. Look, there is still some snow on the ground and my smart child is dressed for Spring.
