The predicted snow for Jerusalem did not arrive, and so Raphaela had school today.  Though I did not have any patients scheduled, because they all canceled earlier in the week, "just in case it might snow."

As we arrived at the school building, one of the older girls was giving out a note to the parents who walked inside:  festooned with colorful flowers and butterflies, the note read, "The Keys to a Great Day are a smile, an orderly house, and a cup of coffee."

I asked the girl if she drinks coffee, and she laughed, but said, "I'm only in fifth grade!  But we know that parents need lots of coffee."
