I wish I had little kids. The news announced that tomorrow will be a snow day. I loved the glee & excitement a snow day produced on the faces of my children. Squeals of delight, laughter, and celebration always followed the "snow day" announcement. Typically, the kids had to wait until 6:00 a.m. to know whether or not they had a day off of school. Today, they announced it early for tomorrow. It wasn't because of anticipated snow as much as the subzero temperatures.
But I didn't get to experience the fun of sharing this exciting news with anyone. Instead, I get a text message from the college Hilary attends with the following:
"CSUPD is investigating an unspecified and currently unsubstantiated general threat to campus. As a precaution, please be vigilant when on campus today and report anything or anyone suspicious to CSUPD immediately by calling 911." 9:00a.m.
At 1:00 p.m., "CSUPD continues to work with the FBI to determine the validity of the threat made to campus earlier today. Law enforcement officials do not believe there is a present or imminent threat to campus at this time. However, CSUPD and the Public Safety Team remind you to always be vigilant about your surroundings and report anything suspicious by calling 911."
I used to think it was fun, watching my kids get older. I'm not so sure anymore.
