Awesome!
When Mikey went back to school after break, he brought his journal. When the other kids asked how his break was, he could say, “Awesome!” His four-and-a-half-day school vacation was packed with fun stuff so if they asked, “What did you do over break?” He could show them his journal.
Jumping, valentine treats, movies and snowy fun filled Mikey’s break. That sounds pretty awesome to me!
