• Keaton and Campbell normally leave on Thursday mornings for Mother's Day Out, but since school was only half a day they didn't have to go. This also meant that they didn't have anything to do so they slept in along with Reagan.
• The boys didn't have this luxury. I woke Whitman up first to start working with me, and then the boys had to get up. Whitman had a good bit of school work today which he drug out all day long-it was even snowing by the time that he finished so of course he even had to take a few breaks to play outside.
• Pretty much someone was standing at the window all day today waiting on the snow to start falling. And as soon as it did the kids headed outside. People have been in and out of this house at least 100 times. There are shoes and coats everywhere, and people are making snow slushies out of every liquid they can find in this house.
• And poor Bentley-she is completely worn out because every little bit, some one would take her outside. She would come inside, and someone else would walk down the stairs and ask her if she wanted to go outside. 
• I made apple pork loin roast for supper. I think that it was good, but I also think that we don't eat much non processed meat around here so we don't know what things should taste like so pretty much Reagan and I were the only ones who liked the supper. 
• After supper, I worked on my crochet creation for a little bit. I plan to be over 75 percent finished by tomorrow evening. I have one more crochet kit to finish, and then I want to make a blanket which I am super excited about.
• This evening, Keaton who hates the snow spent about 45 minutes outside with Graham and Whitman. Campbell didn't last as long as the rest of them, but their goal was to create a sled track for tomorrow. This sled track creating involved pouring water on the track-this water was from the laundry room shower which they then carted outside to their track. They will sleep well tonight.
• Campbell has made brownies, and now I am going to empty the dishwasher and make some bread for tomorrow.
