There are few things as magical as a snow day when you are little. Days when Mother Nature decides that you need a break and replaces the normal daily grind with cartoons and pop tarts in bed, comfy pajamas, snowball fights with friends and family and maybe the construction of a snowman or two.
.
This ain't one of those days.
.
River is two years old now and I think it's just about time for this gravy train to end. Time to get out and earn some money for those pop tarts and Tinkerbell paraphernalia. It's a tough world and no daughter of mine is gonna grow up a softy. I never enjoyed a snow day as a child. HECK NO. School never closed when I was little. If it was too slippery for the buses to operate, well.. we just walked to school. 20 miles. Up hill. Both ways.
.
Time for some tough love:
.
Nothing builds character like shoveling the deck before sunrise!
. 
It's good exercise too! Feel the burn, River?
.
Hurry up River! Don't forget the front stoop as well!
.
Mmmmmm, hot chocolate after hard work tastes even better!
.
Please Help

I am so proud, she is a hard worker like her MeMaw. I can't wait to get help feeding the cows and everything this summer ;-)
That hot cocoa looked like it was well deserved.
Loved the mother & daughter pose in the first picture.

Don't you think you're being a little tough on River?
