Today was a special day in Ms. Smith's class. Some of the children were walking around the room, some of them were standing in small groups, and some of them were at their desks, putting finishing touches on cardboard mailboxes. After coloring a cool flame on the side of his racecar mailbox, Christian hopped out of his chair, strutted over to Samaya's desk, and dropped a small white envelope into her princess castle mailbox. Samaya blushed and played with her hair. While this was happening, Aiden was frantically trying to put a small white envelope into everyone's mailbox. After giving one to Ms. Smith, Aiden pulled out a medium-sized red envelope from his pocket. He blushed and tried to put it in Samaya's mailbox, but it wouldn't quite fit.
