198/365 Big Snow

Six inches. That's a nice solid snow for St. Louis.

No school. Whew. We're out of snow days (our last one was kinda unnecessary) but we took one anyway. Because my kids wouldn't be going either way.

The street is all off, except Zelda and her kids. Why Arch Street decided to have school is a mystery--they're not state funded, they don't have the same rules about snow days and make ups and all that. Fiona calls in the morning: "Bree didn't answer, and their porch light is out already."

I look outside. It is. "Maybe they had somewhere to go for the day. Sledding, maybe," which is something I don't do with the kids alone. Not with Billy only 2 (today!).

"Yeah," she sighs. But she keeps herself plenty busy with Eliza.
