I'm thankful for dads, Olivia's dad, in particular. I worked late on Wednesday so Evan had Olivia-duty. While I worked in my classroom and watched the snow coming down outside, I thought about how fun it would be to take Olivia outside and play which made me feel even worse about being at work. I pulled in the driveway around 6 (though it was dark enough to be midnight), I was delighted to see Olivia and Evan outside enjoying the snow illuminated by the streetlight. Evan had cleverly pulled out the beach toys and was happily building snow shapes for Olivia as she cheerfully stomped on and destroyed them. Leave it to a dad to find a use for the sand toys in November.
