Ice Days

Andrea and I survived our first "no-school ice day" for the school year today with minor battle scars. We are convinced, however, that we are not, nor will we ever be, meant to be home schoolers.

Andrea spent the entire morning playing "customer" in the restaurant set up by Hannah and Lily, I spent most of the day losing at Risk and Monopoly to Caleb and Hannah, Grace became so bored that she began cleaning the house in between calling her grandma to come rescue her from this hellish boredom, and Isaiah spent the majority of the day giving in to his aggravation inflamed by an incredibly talented pestering older brother (talented in knowing exactly what needs to be done to pester anther individual, the talent is especially pronounced when directed at any sibling).

It was quite a day. Norman Public Schools have announced that they are also closed tomorrow, oh the places we will go, the fun we will have!

Here I Dwell,
