Snow Day

Our snow days don't look like everyone else's.

The boys asked me the other day about having a snow day. What they meant was, are we like public school? If it snows a lot, will we get the day off? I laughed really hard and told them they lived in their school, so no, they would not get the day off.

They still win though. We had snow last night, so before we hit the books today, they bundled up and went out to play. The other kids were in their brick building schools. Mine were out in the back yard. It makes the school day easier when you start with what they want. They don't have to spend all morning or all day trying to concentrate on studies, listen to a teacher and wonder when they'll get to play outside in the snow. We did that first.
