My first real snow storm since we moved to TN started yesterday morning. It started snowing after 9 yesterday, and didn't stop until late last night, when the sleet started. The snow shut down the entire city. Daycares closed. All the schools closed the night before, when it hadn't even started snowing. Even restaurants were closed yesterday and today. We probably got 3-4 inches.
In Michigan, this wouldn't even have phased us. I am continually amazed at the differences between the two states. It is only 500 miles away, but it feels like a whole different world.
Church is closed tomorrow, and I am sort of excited. I can't wait to take Eli out in the snow tomorrow, I want to make a snowman, and throw snow balls with my baby, in the first REAL snow he has ever seen.
I love all the new experiences with Eli. I love watching his face as he sees and experiences things for the very first time. I love being a mom.
The new things are always so much fun, aren't they?
ReplyDeleteIt is a little funny to see how other states freak out over 3-4 inches of snow. lol. If we did that here, we would be "closed" weekly.
