snow day 2021...

 Yesterday was just the day everyone needed!  We had perhaps one of the most magically, unexpected days!  We woke up to it beginning to snow and ended up with almost 6 inches!  It literally snowed, hard, all day long!  We threw snowballs, jumped on a snowy trampoline, made snow ice cream, enjoyed the hot tub, built a snowman and even rode the 4-wheeler through the streets.

Luckily for us Adam was home to enjoy it with us, but perhaps the best part was seeing all the full faces, no masks, on social media that were smiling and beaming with happiness.  I swear you could "hear" the joy throughout the neighborhood as families played together outside, and for just a few hours, forgot about all the craziness going on in our country right now.
God was smiling down on us and knew we needed this!

 Here's a recap of Marley's best quotes from 2020...

Today Show they had a story on the To Kill a Mockingbird play.

Me: “Marley your middle name came from one of the characters in that book. It’s my favorite book.”

Marley: “Oh, Bob Scout Marley?”

At the store Marley and I ran into a high school friend's mom whom I hadn't seen in at least 16 years. I introduced her to Marley and she asked if I had other children...

Me: "No Marley is enough."

Marley: "Yeah I asked for a 2-legged sister and I got a 4-legged sister because my mom's old."

Me: "Really?!"

Meet Shelly Turd, Marley’s new find.

According to Marley she’s named “Shelly because she has a shell and Turd short for turtle”.

Omg! While Marley and I were waiting in the car to go into her doctors appointment, 2 old people were walking in the parking lot and Marley said, “Well looks like someone escaped the nursing home!”

Me: “Marley you need to go feed the dog please.”

Marley: “Ugh! You’re the meanest mom ever!”

Marley: “Do you prefer this life or your earlier one?”

Me: “What do you mean?”

Marley: “Like when you were a kid and had only black and white clothes.”

Me: “First of all I’m not that old! Second, the clothes were in color. Just the pictures were black and white.”

Marley just said, "These shoes are my life! I have to have them!"

Me: “Marley will you cuddle with me forever?”

Marley: “No.”

Me: “Why?!”

Marley: “Ok maybe, but it’s going to be rare.”

We were in the front yard and noticed this double rainbow.

Marley’s response: “Man I wish we were closer so we could get the pot of gold!”

Me: “What does Addie call her grandma?”

Marley: “Susu. She told me I could call her Susu, but I just called her “hey” bc I felt weird.”

Marley rubbing my head tonight:

“Mom I’m going to rub your head because you teach all day and your head has to hurt with all those math problems stuck in there.”

Adam and I were listening to the intro of The Sweater Song by Weazer and Marley said, “It sounds like somebody’s trying to solve a mystery on Scooby Doo!”
