We have to put a spoon under or pillow (check)
We have to wear our pajamas inside out (check)
We have to flush 2 ice cubes down the toilet (check)
We have to leave 2 ice cubes in the toilet and let them melt (check)
We have to do the snow dance (twirling around in your bed, check)
After all of that, I told her that even though we had done ALL these things, it still may not snow, and she still may not get out of going to school. I asked her "Who is still in charge?" She answered, "God" That's right and so if God thinks that we don't need snow, then we wont get it, and you will go to school!
She understood and quickly went to bed (with a spoon and a tooth under her pillow....I wonder if the tooth fairy was confused by the spoon :)
Lo and behold....we got just a dusting of snow...AND she got out of school!
I had one happy Kindergartner this morning!!

I am impressed and will share this with my 8th graders. They could not sit still all day! Finally we had snow at about 3pm and at 3:30 as they were to leave we went outside and watched it snow! It still amazes me how exciting it is when it snows. Thanks for sharing your story. I have enjoyed all the memories.
