It is snowing!

Winter as been very mild here as far as snow goes. So this week when we were being told we would have snow, I was a little skeptical. Tuesday when we were called (5:15am) by the school district to notify us of a two hour delay, I thought, wow, we have snow. When the sun came up I noticed that we had about a dusting to an inch on the ground (I guess the schools needed time to clear sidewalks and parking lots to be sure no ice was built up). We were again warned Thursday that we would be getting more snow. So on my way home from gymnastics, it was snowing, our street had at least an inch...The thought of another call from the school district at 5am in the morning ran through my head. The girls get to sleep in a little and I will get a little extra time in the morning before having to get them ready for school. I woke up about 4-4:30am. I moved the phone closer to me so it would be easier to answer when it rang. I waited and waited and waited some more. The phone never rang! Once the sun came up I realized that the snow had melted from the roads, driveways and sidewalk overnight. No delay! Schedule was as usual. The reports came in that we would yet again have snow starting very early Saturday morning and going into the afternoon. I anticipated a light coating would be awaiting us once the sun came up. When I looked out this morning, Wow, we had about 2 inches of snow on the entire ground! I know when the girls woke up by the excited squeals heard from the upstairs! It has been snowing lightly since.

Three times is a charm, or is it three strikes and your out!?
