SNOW DAY DESPAIR
Poor Hugh came downstairs on tenterhooks this morning hoping for a snow day off school because of the big storm that hit yesterday. When he heard there was only a two hour delayed opening his despair was intense. But pragmatically he went right to work on his homework from yesterday that he'd put off doing, only stopping every now and then to give way to his disappointment. Of course, he soon cheered up and is now running around outside throwing snowballs with the neighborhood children!
