My eyes opened wide. Excitement awoke my body. I knew what today was. I was waiting– the city was waiting; Austin was about to experience something not seen often at all.

Sliding down the hall–rushing down the stairs, my body made its way to the front door. My mind was imagining all sorts of things, I was prepared for disappointment, but hoping for the best. I took I deep breath. My hand tightly grasped the door handle. Opening the door slowly, I was scared what would be on the other side, and to my surprise I could see a couple of flakes on the ground, but that was enough.

School was canceled and I had a day I will never forget.
