SOLC #7 - Snow Day Surprise and Celebrate Turn #6

The Slice of Life March Challenge is hosted by Two Writing Teachers.  


My slice today is serving double duty because I am also celebrating with Ruth Ayres.
Thursday we had another snow day.  By mid afternoon the streets were pretty clear so I decided to venture out, go to school, and get some work done.  

As I was sitting in my room, I received a text message from another teacher who lives across the field from the school.  If I look out my window, I can see his house.

The text said, Emma, his daughter and a former 4th grade student of mine, left you a surprise.  Look out your window.

I opened the blinds and this is what I saw.

I replied, "Tell her thank you and that SHE is an angel."

Celebrating a snow day surprise!

    I love those little things that make your heart warm :)
    I hope that snow melts quickly and we're seeing the blue of pool water before we know it!

    Absolutely beautiful, and your simple story-telling technique gave all of the attention to the sweetness of the gift. Thanks for sharing!
