Grace today was in a non-snow day snow-day.
Whether this is fantasy or not, I remember a year when I was in public school, that had 15 snow days. Mom and dad continually tell me it was not that many....but it sure seemed liked it. I loved school, so to have a school day was brutal. It's not that I didn't like hanging at home or with my mom and dad. I really enjoyed learning and watching other people; the best place to do this was at school.
Well today, many of my activities were cancelled. I could stay home (which was alright as it is very gusty and wet outside thanks to remnants of hurricane Sandy). So I had a snow day that was not a snow day. As I get older, I find grace in the moments when there is a chance to slow down, and a surprise moment of time given in which one can do a project one has wanted to do for a long time.
Today has been grace.
