My sister has six kids and I have absolutely no idea how she gets them out of the house on even the pleasantest of spring mornings much less a bitter cold winter's day!Leslie Kendall Dyehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00137983295245025135noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4295031300306454362.post-42326279980357719692015-01-28T22:00:46.231-05:002015-01-28T22:00:46.231-05:00I feel certain I can make peace with snow days mor...I feel certain I can make peace with snow days more readily than I can with Frozen!Leslie Kendall Dyehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00137983295245025135noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4295031300306454362.post-36649731418880177892015-01-28T15:58:26.221-05:002015-01-28T15:58:26.221-05:00My daughter is older and I just don't feel lik...My daughter is older and I just don't feel like dealing with snow today, but I still made her go out. Cruel parent. Oh well.

I was really looking forward to the snow day but the day wound up being awful & I think it was b/c it didn't match my expectations. My kids actually complained about me forcing them outside to go sledding. At the park we live NEXT to. With Friends. I hate kids.

Shortly after embarking, I fell and started crying. She asked what was wrong, and all I could say was, "I don't know, I think I fell on a thorn or something, wahhh!" She told me (age 10) to go back home while she and the rest of the kids continued on the walk, years later saying "don't you know how much WORK it takes to get everyone ready?" However, when I got home by myself and pulled off my snow pants, my leg was COVERED in blood. GUSHING blood. I had fallen on a rusty old plow piece (thanks, New England). Don't worry, she and the gang were home 15 minutes later and I got my stitches, but don't feel too much mom guilt re the mittens and snow. Worse things happen. Like stitches. Or having to bundle up FOUR kids in snow gear! Or having a 1 year old with the flu, like I do right now. Wahhhhh! Casey Fhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06264007514362532660noreply@blogger.com
