NYC Blizzard

After last week's blizzard, we took Jack to Central Park to go sledding for the first time. The snow was perfect and deep!

Jack loved the sledding part...and pretty much hated everything else: being pull back up the hill, waiting to sled again, standing in the snow...all were met with crying. Then smiles again when he was placed back in the sled.

Here's a quick video of one of his runs.

The only gloves we could keep on his hands were mine. 
Hence the Edward Scissorshands look.

Getting happier after sledding.

A fabulous example of the top-notch snow removal after the blizzard on 70th. This garbage truck is equipped with a plow. However, it is stuck in the snow and hit a parked car.

School Projects

Jack has a school project due this Friday. The project is to visit a specific historic landmark in the city and then put together a write-up about the visit and place. Jack's location is Hamilton Grange which was the country home of Alexander Hamilton. We visited a few weeks ago (yep, we've have the assignment this long). Finally, Jack started putting together the project today. OMG, it was like watching me from 30 years ago. There was denial and defensiveness, then came tears and finally he produced really good work. If this is what the next 15 years are going to be like, we are in trouble. Also - sorry Mom, I know I tortured you with this experience many many times.
