Let it snow, let it snow, let it, oh-for-Pete's sake, SNOW

I guess with a heading like that, you don't need a weather report.  (As if you did in the first place.)  The stuff is actually very beautiful, and I'll post a picture later today.

I loved your responses to the Valentine question--Margaret, I DO remember making those Valentine boxes with crepe paper and glue, and waiting in anticipation to open them on the day.  It was very exciting--a lot of things about attending grade school in Northport, WA were major events--like the last day before Christmas vacation, when we always had cookies, punch, a movie and a very modest gift exchange in the afternoon, followed by dismissal.  Hard to know who was happier when the bell sounded--us, or our teachers.  :)  Those of you familiar with small towns will note that movies were a very big deal in those days--our local movie house closed sometime in the early fifties, I think--I recall being enthralled by Disney's "Toby Tyler".  That kid would have had me sold on running off to join the circus if it hadn't meant leaving home.  :)

I mentioned my big plan, right?  The one where I get up at 4 a.m., etc.?  Well, it finally occurred to me that God's plan for me might just be a little different from mine. 

He seems to want me to sleep in.  :)
