Let it snow...

I love snow days! Apparently when the snow is too much for cars to drive on they call it a "snow day." I just learned about it and here's how it works. It starts out with Mama and Daddy the night before looking out the window a lot and checking with "the weather man". He lives in a box in our living room and draws neat moving pictures. I don't usually understand what he's saying but he uses fun words like Doppler and weather track 5000. Then Mama and Daddy go to bed and they bring the phone with them I wonder if it's like a teddy bear for them or something-- strange though, it's not soft like my Lammy. In the morning when we usually wake up and everyone starts running around getting ready to leave the house, but on these days we watch the box in the living room for the weather man again. I think the box he lives in must be called the "storm center" because they keep calling it that. Anyways, then the phone rings and somebody talks to my Dad. He does a little dance in his PJ's and then yells to Mom that school is cancelled. That's when Mom sticks her tongue out at Dad and gets ready for work--- it must be a game they play.

The cool thing about a "snow day" is that I don't go to day care, I stay home with Dad and make a "snow man." I thought it was fun to dress him up but he was pretty boring to talk to, him didn't say anything at all. It was neat how he seemed to pop-up right out of the ground though. Then we go back inside, after I help Daddy shovel, and have hot chocolate. Yum!
