The offspring formerly known as the kidlet and I were walking up the stairs to school this morning when a big gust of wind blew a soccer ball and great quantities of dust across the playground. "Wow!" he said, "I've never seen the wind before."
They have their school pictures taken today, and I don't think our careful combing and gelling and styling is any match for this wind, especially as their time slot isn't until 3pm. I told him to be careful putting on his coat, which goes on over his head. "But Mom, it's mega mega hold gel." Of course, silly me.
Update: The wind has also brought a steady stream of clouds cruising by my office window at remarkable speeds as they head Northeast hard by Mt. Baker. I've spent all day feeling like I'm floating.
