In the snow again

Believe it or not, we woke up to snow again this morning...what a crazy winter it has been!  Today's snow was the southern kind of snow -- here in the morning, melted by afternoon.  Just right. :)
The kids are excited every time it happens (although some of us, of the older variety, are pretty ready for spring now), so I called a 'snow delay' for school and let them escape outside for an hour and a half.  Eventually I called them in, peeled off wet clothes, sent them off for hot showers, served them hot chocolate, and then we sat down to school...and what relaxed, happy, ready-to-work students they were after their morning energy-burn!

Do not bring snow gear when you visit next week.......you will NOT need it! Glad the kids got to enjoy it but you need to practice for the lovely March weather...

One of the blessings of homeschooling is being able to call the shots and that includes having fun in the rarely seen southern snow!

Hi Marsel
Thank you for visiting my blog! Your snow looks so beautiful. I love the freedom & flexibility we get from home schooling - I imagine your children are that much more attentive after using their energy!
Hope you have a wonderful day
