another good reason to have children

Posted on January 8, 2010 by thirdstoryies
Snow Days.

Yes, I know, most of the time they are a royal pain in the neck as you try to juggle busy work schedules and figure out who’s taking which kid where and how you’re going to get your work done with a child (or two) sitting in your office all day. But sometimes, when the stars align in just the right way, they are an absolutely perfectly good reason to call in sick. And stay in your pajamas all day. And play.

I wasn’t sure why everyone in the hospital had to be lined up, but I found out later it was a for a field trip to the local pirate ship.

Um, I think it’s a bit too late to call an ambulance for that one at the end of the pier…
We did do a few minutes of this – slowly putting things away from the holiday…

But way more of this…tending to the infirm in our jammies. Hope you stayed warm as well.

    Field trip to the local pirate ship? I hope they weren’t all put in the brig!

    I really like how the ambulance is pulled up to the dock.

    At first I thought you meant the kids were a pain. I had to go back and read again. My mind is mush…too many snow days here!
