Dear Mother

Dear Mother Nature,

I know it’s April 1^st, so the snow whirling around the house this morning was quite a side-splitter! Oh how I laughed….laughed until I cried, which was about a 2-second interval.

But all fun aside, it’s now afternoon, and if you have read about April Fools etiquette you know that all jokes are supposed to stop at noon. So, in the interest of keeping your friends you might want to consider laying off the white stuff.

Not to mention the wind, you could turn that down a notch or many notches, really. I’m beginning to think the roof of this building is going to take flight.

That is all. I don't want to tell you how to do your job, but I feel I must tell you that millions of Canadians are now doubting the true meaning of spring. It's sad really, how glum we are. Please feel free to pick up our spirits. Now.

Thank you.
