Once there was a snow man......

My sister, Jacki and brother in law Dave brought us home a special treat from Big Bear today! A truck load of SNOW!!! This is as good as it gets in California. Little Micah couldn't be happier. Sadie was conflicted, she didn't like her hands being so cold but she would not stop digging in it. Ahhh life is fun!

My rainy Thursday

This week I got my clearance badge to volunteer in Sadie's special day class. I went today. I cried all the way home.

Let me start by saying that the teachers are great. I really do think that they are doing all they can. There is just so many children and not enough hands. All of these children's disabilities are on so many different levels it's impossible to address their needs as a class. It was only one day. I know I need to give it another chance but there will be much pondering and praying about what to do.

When we got home Sadie kept trying to go outside in the rain. I could not get her mind off of the loud raindrops pinging at the window. I came down to put a child lock on the front door. Sadie started to protest, then looked in my eyes and said "Nie Nie want to say hi to the rain" she opened the door again and said "Hi rain" and waved. I then carried her outside to wash away all our worries.
