Snow, Snow and more Snow

The coldest time in Shanghai in 3o years and now we are having record snowfall. The past couple of days have been quite interesting with Josh being so sick (rota virus) and all the snow. It has snowed here for the past three days, but mostly melted. The newspaper said it was suppose to end yesterday (although weather reporting here is quite suspect), but we woke this morning to three more inches, and it has not stopped snowing yet. This type of snow is quite rare as we are even with Houston, Texas, and like there the city is not prepared for this type of weather. Bless their soles, the guards and people that help garden the public areas of our subdivision were out shoveling snow with garden shovels and brooms, as there is nothing else to use. Drove Danny to school in the golf cart thinking the whole time that this was not what the vehicle was meant to do. Yet, it worked great. Josh and I even made it the little farther distance to the clinic to have him checked out. I feel so bad for the little guy and she said at least two more days with this rota virus. I will definitely have the Toy Story trilogy memorized by that point. We have watched it over and over this week. One blessing is I believe the rest of us will not get it as rota virus is usually only contagious for little ones like Josh.

Well, he has fallen asleep next to me, so I am off to carry the little guy up to his bed.
