Thundersnow

Gary Lezak said it was impossible, but we have seen it! A winter storm came through this morning, and when I was out shoveling while it was still snowing, there was thunder AND lightening. It was an amazing phenomenon. We probably got 5 inches of snow, and while it’s not too cold now, it’s supposed to be in the single digits tomorrow and the rest of the week. Dad says that the only reason we have to shower and get dressed it to watch the Olympics tonight. So, I’m embarrassed to say, but Joe will be getting up from his nap soon still in his pajamas. What a lazy day!

The day didn’t start out that way – before 9 we were all fed and we had dusted and vacuumed the first floor. During all of this, Joe was dragging around a mitten on a string – you know the kind that are supposed to go in the kids’ sleeves so you don’t lose them? Well, one mitten fell off of its string, and Joe was dragging the attached one all through the house calling it his “doggie.” I think this is a little milestone – playing pretend.
