It snowed today! Well, as close to snow as we get in these parts. 

We were returning from lunch when my students realized that crystals were falling from the sky. One shouted out the observation and then they just exploded out of the doors. I could not have wrangled them back if I had to. They spun, shouted, opened their mouths to the sky.

More students joined, then more, and more. 

It was magical. 

As we walked back to our classroom, damp, but still frenetic, one of my girls informed me that when she had returned to the classroom to retrieve her coat, she heard my phone ring. I had missed four calls from Kane. I quickly dialed his number.

 "What's the matter?" I asked.

"Nothing. Did you see the snow?" he asked. 

"Yes, we were just playing in it."

"It was so cool. It was like flurries over here."

"Is that why you called me?"

"Yeh, I just wanted to make sure you saw it."

Magical.
