The girls were really bummed that their school didn't close today. They dawdled until virtually the last minute, hanging onto every word during the school closing reports on the radio. There was lots of praying and finger crossing, but it just didn't pan out for them this time.
DD1 begged and begged for me to let her stay home anyway , with a lot of "I love you, Mommy"s(she only does that when she wants something)
DD2 coped with her grief by trying on several outfits and not hanging up or putting any of it away.
Little Man thinks he wants to go for a walk in this miserable icy weather in only a long sleeved tee shirt and his diaper. Um... no, we aren't going to do that. I lock the door with the deadbolt to thwart any adventure-seeking.

update on the coat...because it looks like real fur, she feels or senses other kids glaring at her, and she thinks that THEY think that she's a bad person and that she's wearing a real fur (ie 'animal killer') or something.
I had a heart to heart with her and told her that even if it WAS a real fur, if it was hers and she liked it, she could wear it if she wanted to...and that at every moment of our lives, there's somebody, somewhere, who doesn't like us or something we're doing. The important part is that we are true to ourselves.
