inside out jim jams with a spoon under your pillow

Sometimes the old magic is strongest.  Last night, the girls turned their jim jams* inside out and slept with spoons under their pillows. This primitive appeal to the snow spirits was heard, and this morning, Fulton county schools have canceled classes for the day giving the girls their second ever no-school-snow-day.  Not only that, but the ice cream factory has canceled all meetings and made office hours optional today, so I will be working from home.

*We had some British next door neighbors for a while when Finn and Fallie were younger, and a few of their expressions stuck.  Jim jams can also refer to the D.T.’s, so it also has that going for it.  Also, most of the kids in our neighborhood still refer to bicycle training wheels as “stabilizers.”
