Note to self

When deciding to walk Oscar to school with an abundance of snow on the ground. Be sure to leave at least an hour of grace time to get there on time...Otherwise, your not-so-nice mommy self will rear its ugly head and demand that he and little sister WALK like a real boy/girl and not like a cat. You may also be forced to put Poppy in the stroller crying, because she will inevitably want to lie down in a giant pile of snow and not want to get off.
Yes, you may find it a better choice to wait until the afternoon pick-up time to let the little ones doddle along until their little hearts are content!

On the other bright side, at least your kids are willing to walk with snow.

seriously- i read this awhile ago before i commented and thanked the stars that someone else goes through this as well! if i had a nickel for every time my child decided to be a non-human and walked on all fours- through a store, through snow, through the school...i would be so rich. it has to be a phase- one to teach my patience!
