  • The Little Red Hen
    The Little Red Hen
    Hooray for a good work ethic! The little red hen asks but receives no help in her efforts to put bread on the table. Yet all who wouldn't help would like to eat. In a refreshingly old-fashioned triumph of moral consequences, they don't get to!
  • Noisy Nora
    Noisy Nora
    Poor Nora! The loveable mousette experiences all the pangs of the child-in-the- middle, caught between the demands of baby brother and bossiness of big sister. Catchy meter, playful illustrations make for a wonderfully satisfying mouse's tale. Baby-Preschool
  • A Chair for My Mother
    A Chair for My Mother
    A remarkably beautiful story told by a young girl whose mother is a waitress. Since they lost all their furniture in a fire, they've been saving mother’s tips in a jar – so they can buy a big comfortable chair for their whole family to enjoy – daughter, mother and grandmother. Life has its ups and downs, but there’s always lots of love. Ages 4-7

Loudoun County Public Schools closed?

No, this isn't the official site for LCPS school closing - this is just the most frequent blogger in Loudoun County - Megamom Barbara Curtis, mother of 12.

But, since you asked, LCPS just released word:

Loudoun County Public Schools are closed today, March 2, 2009

LCPS has withdrawn from the School's Out service (not sure why).  I get word via Loudoun Alert - and you can sign up for text messages and other alert methods there.

And btw, while you're here, feel free to browse around!  Just click the words MommyLife at the top for the most recent post.

Love,

Just had to comment, as I'm up after making calls for our PTO phone chain (for me, there's no going back to bed after that!) We're in NJ and my kids are going to be thrilled to have a snow day.

I also found out this morning that today was the trial run of a district-wide automated call system for closings, delayed openings, etc...I'm going to be out of a job! ;)
