Let's talk about the weather.
Today is even, so today is positive.
After a 3 day week because of weather, and a 3 day weekend because of awful weather, we had a full day of school.
The kids were acting accordingly, so on the positive I have to talk about is the weather.
Today was gorgeous. The snow from the weekend was crusted over, making a smooth rippling surface the sun could warm as it rose.
As I drove to school, the sun was causing some fog to form above the the snow covering the empty fields. At one point, it was like a layer cake, with snow, a gap, wispy fog, and a reflection of sun on top.
As the buses arrived, the sun was causing fog that the cold air caused to stick to the trees and bushes in the distance like fondant.
At recess, the sun made the temperature feel warmer than the thermometer declared. The kids had a blast picking up the pieces of crusted snow and letting them fall to the ground like spun glass. And they enjoyed the crunch of the tectonic plates of snow shifting beneath their feet as they ran across the playground.
At the end of the day, the sun still shone, causing slush to form where snow stomped from boots lay in clumps.
I don't know what tomorrow's weather will bring, but for an Indiana day in February, you couldn't ask for much better.
