Our older kids don't understand (not even our college kids) the concept of black ice. They don't believe that they would spin out, not them! Two have to cross the state to go back to school and we're trying to get them to wait until the weekend.
The snow, after melting a little and then refreezing, is hard and crunchy now so the kids can't play in it. We still have about a 4" cover.
This is our third day out of school. The teachers are worried that this has killed the February break or part of spring break.
Blondie, I hear you about trying to enjoy this time of your kids' lives and not wishing that they could just hurry through it. When I had 6 little girls under 6, I would occasionally be conflicted like that but older parents would repeat, "Little children, little problems. Bigger children, bigger problems." They were right, the problems are harder to deal with and/or solve as they get older!
