Well, the weather has been the only thing to change around here lately. Quite amazing when you consider all God's hand can accomplish, all the different tasks and changes, etc. The children were on a 2 Hr delay on Monday due to snow. Then Tuesday we woke up to more snow. Shawn took this day off due to slow work. Then it started to snow Tues evening, then turned to rain around 11 p.m. Rained all night long with the temperature at 24 degrees! Started pouring at 4 a.m., then finally turned to ice for a few minutes at 10, then to huge snow flakes a few minutes later. Like, bigger than golf balls! That turned to the fine snow that really adds up quickly. So, we had about 2" snow, not sure how many inches of rain, (but enough to cause a small river in our back yard!), then 1/4 to 1/2 " ice, then about 4 more inches of snow. All the rain turned to ice of course. It looks beautiful, but Shawn had to go back to work on Wed, thats where the worry comes in! The fastest he could drive was 30 mph. The bad thing was he had to go pretty far away to work(close to your folks Megan) and it took 3 hrs to get there! So, I was frantic when I watched him slide down the driveway and thought I'm sure to have a heart attack if I don't stop this, and reassured myself who the Master planner is. The kids have loved the break, no school all week after Monday. And now, it is snowing again! We're very thankful that we were fortunate enough not to lose our power this week, with all the trees weighted down with ice. My sister was not so fortunate however and lost her power yesterday.
This will be all for now. Goodnight!
