God Works in Wondrous Ways

Grandma Judy called late last evening to say that Phil was still in the hospital but that she would stay around this morning to take Robin to school and take Ryan with her to help get Phil home. God bless her! Over and above the call of duty!

We got up to maybe an inch of snow here...but further south in the state got hit with more white stuff. By 5:30 AM, I had gotten the call that my district was on a 2-hour delay. That takes the stress out of the mornings. I could let the children sleep in; Meg could head to work without having to worry about getting them up, dressed, and delivered; and Grandma Judy is spared for two hours in the early morning. A little after 8:00, I had the car warming up when I got the call that my school had been canceled. Huh?? For what??

I'll tell you "for what": my not having to go to school today meant that I could deliver and pick-up Robin from school and keep Ryan with me...so that Judy could do what she had to do unencumbered. She's not feeling well, herself. God provided the day off for me so that everyone's needs (including mine) could be fulfilled.

It has snowed much of the day. Six to twelve inches of snow is forecast for here. Tomorrow's fate rests with the weather. We may have another day off. We'll see!
