Day eighteen

Day 18: tell a story from your childhood. dig deep and try to be descriptive about what you remember and how you felt.

When I was in Grade three, I had a teacher named Mrs. Storey. At the end of the year, she invited every student to her house for a backyard pool party. What makes this so significant, is that this was a time before the annual year-end parties that kids these days get to go to…. it was a rare treat have a class party, especially one held by the teacher. My memories are ones of feeling quite excited and having a lot of fun. Running around the pool deck, playing with my friends, splashing in the pool, and eating BBQ’d hot dogs. Funny how a simple gesture like this can have such an impact.

Blessings
