There Once Was a Flake from the Sky...

So at last we got us some snow,
About seven inches or so.
The sledding was fun,
When school there was none,
But alas, back tomorrow we go!

For more limericks and other forays of written fun, go visit Mama Kat's Writers' Workshop!

There once was three little boys
Who were waiting for snow to enjoy.
But it wasn't to be
No snow did they see
So back to school to study Tolstoy.



(okay, maybe not Tolstoy, but I had to keep the rhyme alive.)

No snow here but lots of spring showers which we need. I swear my children hardly know what rain is. We're very happy to finally be getting some to break our drought. (Though snow would be more fun!)

Your kids certainly don't seem to mind the day off.

I loved it. That was good. Man, thats a lot of snow. But, of course, any snow is a lot to me. We don't get any.
