Surprise!

After several futile forecasts yielding nothing, we woke up this morning to a white world. Not quite an inch yet but it's still falling and roads are cold enough that every flake is sticking.

Maybe weather-watchers knew this snow was on the way, but I didn't, so I felt like a kid this morning when I glanced outside, saw the white coating on the deck, the flurries in the air. For just a minute I felt that leap in the heart: No school today! No school!

And then I remembered: I don't go to school anymore. I go to work. And yes, we are having work today.


(We didn't receive quite this much! This is an old photo...)
