Let it 눈! Let it 눈! Let it 눈!

Hey! I'm excited! Sorry about the overabundance of exclamation points! We had our FIRST SNOW Tuesday night and arrived at school Wednesday morning to see a dusty blanket of snow on the playground!




Then, we had our SECOND SNOW on Wednesday! Hard to believe it went from sunny to this in about an hour... Starting around 10, it began snowing steadily and continued for the rest of the day. I'd say we got more than four inches by the time we left around 6.

Things were pretty hectic at school; a lot of the teachers are sick right now and all the buses were running late because of traffic and accidents. This is one of those times I wish everyone didn't have to take off their shoes every time they enter the school. Taking wet snow boots off 300 kindergartners, then putting them back on at the end of the day is no small task.


I quickly (maybe within five minutes of walking through the door?) learned the word for snow -- 눈 (noon). "Laura Teacher! Noon! Noon! Snowy day!"


The kids could hardly control their excitement! 



Okay okay, us teachers were pretty excited, too...


We thought we'd make it through today (Thursday) with no snow, but NOPE. We got our THIRD SNOW today starting mid-afternoon until we left at 6. What a crazy week! Three legitimate snow storms in three days!

What is this, Michigan?!
