The sun is shining and it's 50 degrees outside. The end is near and soon the kids won't need to bundle up in snow pants, boots, and hats! Winters in WI can be brutal when it comes to dressing kids for the weather. However, on the flip side, these items do protect their regular clothes from the mud. But really, who goes in the mud these days anyway, that's so "not cool"!
My parting words to Maddy this morning before school were, "Maddy, please stay out of the mud today. Love you!" She stopped before jumping out of the car, smiled and said, "Yeah ma, maybe we'll find something else to do today at recess." For a split second I thought to myself, "Oh, what a sweet girl." Then reality hit and I thought, "Oh shit, I wonder what she'll get into today!"
I'm sick of snow pants covered with rock dust. Better than mud, I guess.
