My poor kids had to do something today that I've never done - Go to school on Memorial Day. They had a make-up day for one of the ice days. I don't know why Memorial Day was chosen instead of Good Friday. I guess most of us could claim it as a religious holiday. The strangest part about all of this was that at the end of the day, a HUGE storm rolled in. I drove to pick them up and got stuck in the car pool line. The flooding rain, lighting and tornado warnings made this weather much worse and more dangerous that the silly ice days we had. The school kept the kids in the building for an extra 45 minutes.
