Weather report

And, spring break is over.  Boo.  I enjoy actually being able to spend time with the kids.  It's no fun having the five year old at school all day long!  We are definitely looking to summer around here! 

Along with spring and summer, thunderstorm season approaches, too!  So far, we have made it through March with nothing more than a big snow storm, so now we are in desperate need of rain. There is supposed to be spring mud, and we have spring cracked ground.  There are thunderstorms predicted for this week, and the kids discussed it at school.

Mischief came home from school all excited that there was going to be a big, giant rain storm.  And, in this rain storm, there is going to be big, giant lightning and flashes of light, and really, really loud thunder.  Most importantly, she is predicting rain storms because she wants the lights to go out, so she gets to have a candle in her room when she goes to sleep.  When I told her it might not rain until after she went to sleep, she almost cried, and then, she argued with me because, "My teacher said!" 

So, now we have to turn off all the lights and read our Magic Tree House book by candlelight!
