Very Much Snow

They tell us that last year we had 150 inches of snow. This year, we got off to a warm, wet start, and I thought that this winter's record setting would have more to do with mud. I wrote off the snow too soon! Now we have two feet out there at least, and the weatherman is calling for another foot over the next 24 hours.

The thing is, even with all of this snow, school has still been in session except for this past Monday. Tomorrow Leah has a doctor's appointment at ten AM, Benjamin has a trumpet lesson at one, and Rachel and Amanda are invited to a birthday party that starts at 5:30 and is located uphill on a dirt road. I am not sure my van is up to all of this! Rear wheel drive on a minivan is just not the ticket around here.

I should have taken my cue from Jason, and when people asked me if I needed anything for the baby, I should have said, "The baby needs a 4-wheel-drive SUV!"
