Snowing…

It has been the craziest winter so far.  We have had record low temperatures which have caused schools to either close or have a delayed start.  It has already snowed once which caused schools to be closed for a day and a half.  It snowed again yesterday, schools are closed today, and it is supposed to continue snowing for the rest of the day.  Right now I am at Bruegger’s Bagels enjoying a coffee, catching up on things, and am enjoying watching the snow come down.  It is snowing now, but later on in the day it is predicted to ice.  Here in NC, ice is not uncommon.  The only problem with ice is that if there is too much of it, the power will go out.  Yuck!  We are praying that this doesn’t happen.

The snow is beautiful!  Everything looks so pure and clean.  It is quiet.  I love it when it snows.  When it used to snow at night in Frisco, Colorado I would walk down the middle of the road and enjoy the quiet.  There were no cars on the road and the snow would fall in silence.  It was just me and the snow.  I loved that feeling.  Charlotte is much busier than Frisco, but it still takes me back.

Yesterday the kids enjoyed playing in the snow.  Miller just walked around in it while dragging his feet.  He and I would laugh because it was all over our heads and on our clothes.  Later on, Faith and Wilson went out in the yard and into the woods to play.  Today they are at mom’s for the morning and are out in the yard playing with Gabriel and Shepherd.  It is going to be a fun couple of days!

Miller and I were at the library when it really started to come down….

My silly Wilson was outside in his bathing suit, sneakers, hat and gloves.  He was throwing snowballs at the glass.
