There wasn't much snow on the ground, but the boys got another snow day on Thursday, February 26. During last week's snow break, Brody's class had an assignment to write and illustrate a story to be considered for the Celebrate Literacy competition coming up. Brody wrote his book about a snowman. In his story, two friends wanted to build a snowman but the snow was quickly melting. So, the boys build a small snowman, put it on a cookie sheet, and stick it in the back of the freezer. A year later, they are surprised to find the snowman still in the freezer!
Brody did a great job on his story, and it is funny how similar our day was to what he had written. All of the details that he wrote a week earlier played out today with our small snowman. It is like we were living out his book. I asked him to write another story with a great ending for our family...who knows, maybe it will come true too!
