Snow my gosh!

Welcome to the mid-west in late January and early February..yes it's winter, and yes we do have snow! We have had a mostly mild winter, only snowing a couple of times, until today. What started as a light snow this morning has turned, I may thankfully say a full scale blizzard! The last time I was out (about 30 min ago) we had drifts that were above my knees when walking, and more snow to come. For those of you that are tired of the weather already, I'll joyfully remind you it snows, and is cold in the mid-west winters. Once in a while we are graced with a really good snow. One of those as adults you can look back on and gossip about how it doesn't snow anymore - not like when I was a kid. Well, yes it does, it is right now. It doesnt happen often, but it is happening today. When my children grow up, they may not remember this snow exactly. What my 4 1/2 and 21/2 year old may remember is daddy came home early because it snowed! I, like them will be praying for snow daily until warm weather returns!
