The First Day Of Second Grade
Children’s Writing Festival : Story #6

A beautiful still life made by an young artist (the author of this post) |
“It’s raining cats and dogs!!” I screamed. Images of beagles and poodles falling out of the sky flashed through my head. My mom just stared at me. I quickly threw on jeans and a sweater while still thinking what dog I would like. ”Honey, be careful. It’s wet outside and wear a jacket”, Mom shouted after me. Maybe once the dogs and cats flew out of the sky, they peed almost immediately and hence the wet part. But the jacket part made no sense whatsoever. I called my friends and told them it is raining cats and dogs. Like me, they screamed in delight. We all ran outside and saw….
I woke up on a cold February morning to see my mom standing by my bedside with big grin on her face. “It’s raining cats and dogs outside, there will be no school today. Why don’t you do what you LOVE to do but don’t get to do otherwise? There is only one condition, no electronics.”
