Snow Sweeper

Alex LOVES playing in the snow. We only got a light dusting last night, but his excitement about the snowfall would have convinced me that it was a foot of snow. He grabbed a broom out of the garage and began sweeping off the deck before Elena was even in her coat and gloves. Alex has learned at preschool that performing an act of kindness is called a mitzvah. We are periodically asked to send in note cards describing a mitzvah Alex has performed at home. These are added to a special tree on his classroom wall. When he was finished with the deck, Alex asked if he had done a "great deed." We are so glad he loves being such a big helper!
