Family Journal: Decembe 16, 2024 “Let it Snow!”

We had our first big snowfall of the winter with around 3 inches falling during the day on Sunday. The snow makes everything look more beautiful and brings back memories of my childhood growing up in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan. The snow also means I lose sleep because I need to check road conditions, utilities at school, etc. when making an announcement regarding possible school closure. We decided today to delay school for an hour to allow everyone extra time on a Monday morning and this being the first snow, time to get to school safely. It was a good decision.

It was fun driving around last night. I spotted a worker in the back of a truck, spreading salt/sand on the roads. In Michigan, we have automatic spreaders on the snow plow trucks. I don’t think it was a coincidence that the truck was close to the highway leading to where an important government official lives. 🙂

I spent a lot of time outdoors last night waiting for my sons to leave the airport. Owen and Oliver arrived safe and sound and I’ll be blogging more about having the Kralovec Five together again. My heart is filled with joy!
