The Snow Was So Deep That…

I was glad schools were closed and I didn’t have to struggle to get into work! My husband would be home to help with the shoveling chores, and to enjoy sledding with our children on the slope behind our house. He enthusiastically agreed, but reluctantly admitted that there would be a slight delay in these plans, until he got back from work! WORK!!! What could be so important that he felt compelled to fight the snowdrifts, in spite of warnings by the authorities to stay off the roads?!

Well, he had a special delivery to make. No, he is not a doctor and it wasn’t a baby, but it was almost as significant to the young lady involved. He wedding was scheduled at 1:00PM, but her wedding gown was still en route from New Jersey on a UPS plane. If my husband could meet that plane at BWI in the early morning, one very relieved young woman could walk down the aisle in style, rather than thermal underwear, that afternoon.

He made it. She was very grateful, and so am I!!!
