Jan 7, 2013 Canandaigua Connected ENewsletter
My 8 year old daughter Rachel thinks she caused this snow day with her thoughts. She rushed home from school yesterday to tell me she was hoping all day long, "maybe we can just go back to winter vacation, maybe we can just go back to winter vacation..." Then, miraculously, BEFORE SCHOOL ENDED, they were told school was cancelled for Tuesday. So, now she's imagining all kinds of things with that brain of hers. Unlimited supply of marshmallows, shopping sprees at mall with mom, the list of IMpossibilities are endless! I'm not going to be the one to burst her bubble because the smile is still ear to ear! Stay warm! BLUE SKIES, Donna Bennett
