Snow Day! #sol15


I am from Texas. This means I am definitely not a snow expert. When snow hits Texas, usually once or twice a year, EVERYTHING shuts down: schools, churches, stores, you name it. I know anyone from 'up North' would laugh at us and our paranoia of driving in the snow. While sitting at home this morning doing exactly what I advised others to do in my post yesterday (snuggle with my youngest), I was certainly grateful for our snow day. I spent time in the moment with all 3 of my own kids and enjoyed every minute of it! This impromptu mental health day has helped to recharge my nearly drained battery. I am looking forward to returning to school tomorrow and hearing my students share about their snow day and how they spent it. I think we will take some time to read our Good Fit books  and write about the joy of a surprise snow day!

I hope your day has been a blessing to you!

Sincerely,
Tara Reed

  3. The snowman looks wonderful! I live in Michigan where we get snow regularly yet my relatives and friends in Finland laugh at me when I mention that we had another snow day or it was too cold to go to school!

  4. A recharged battery is the the best part of a snow day. I know you cherished every moment you had with your three precious kiddos. Their snowman picture captures the beautiful love of a family!
