Snow day?

Well, technically speaking that's what we've got. All the schools are closed today because of this freakish climate change-induced winter weather we're having in Houston. The boys are pleased enough about the day off, but feeling a little cheated because there has been talk all week of snow, snow, snow. Jamie had heard at school that the snow was going to start at 5:00 last night so he was literally counting down the minutes to 5. Which came and went with no snow. He then began impatiently demanding of Sarah and I, "When is it going to snow?" "Why isn't it snowing?" "Why is it hard to say". He went to the window all night until bed checking and then tasked me with checking and reporting once he went to bed. But still no snow. And this morning he jumped out of bed at the stroke of seven, stepped on my head (we were having a sleepover) claimed up the window sill to see...nothin. Not a flake. Poor guy.

So now the roads in Houston are closed until noon tomorrow so we're not going anywhere. As this goes to press it is 9:00 in the morning and they are already literally bouncing off the walls. Anyone want to come over?
