Well, we got out today to take Danny to school. We were all glad to see something other than the walls of the house, but it was pretty scary. There were several vehicles that had spun off the road, and a few wrecks. It will be nice when it warms up some and the streets are improved. I was white knuckled driving to Danny's school, and it took me a little over an hour, usually 20 minutes! Crazy but at least the sun was out so hopefully if it is out again tomorrow and the temperature rises above freezing like they are promising then all will be well.
Danny has started working on cursive! I am so proud of how well he is doing. He has been asking me a lot so I show him the letters that I remember how to write correctly. Over the years I have established my own style and I do not know that I can do it the correct way, but I plan to look at the cursive alphabet and refresh my memory!
We are finally taking down the Christmas decorations, at least on the inside. The ice needs to go away so we can do the outside this weekend. We are not really crazy we leave them up
every year until the epiphany, which is January 6th. We usually take them down the following weekend. Well that was last weekend and we spent the weekend preparing for the snow that was supposed to be here, instead we were iced in! Oh well, hopefully we will get it all done. John Michael and I got 5 boxes full today and Brandon should be off tomorrow and then we have the whole weekend. It is a task when there is so much, but it is a blast. I also need to start wrapping for 2011 Christmas, but I cannot do that until I get the last of the gifts that I have delivered. I will work on that this weekend and next week too!
Well, we had basketball today so we are still working on homework. Gotta run so that I can make him hurry. We are already past bedtime.
Before I go to bed as always I will be praying for all of my family and friends. I also continue to pray that this ice goes away and that everyone is safe while traveling! I also hope that nobody ever takes for granted the amazing things that happen everyday. Yesterday it was a little sun hitting the ice in the trees that was such a gorgeous little gift. Today it was getting out for a little while!
