The Daffodil



Today was beautiful and sunny. It got up to about 52 degrees F. It felt amazing to have the sun out again. Being trapped in school almost felt painful. I simply avoided the 6th grade band today after having to grade their papers. I wish more of them had taken piano lessons, the the grading might not have been so bad.

Thank goodness for Jubilee Endicot though. We couldn't go outside, but she went to Safeway, and brought in the sunshine. She bought all of us a daffodil. They were bright and sunny and beautiful. It felt like the sun had come inside. Everyone started smiling and laughing and we were all much happier. After a day like this you wonder if spring just might be coming, or even already here. Today was a beautiful day.
