February 2013
On the day I turned 16, I was sent to the principal’s office. As a rather timid, honor-roll student, this was a very abnormal request, and I was alarmed. When I arrived, the secretary handed me a dozen pastel roses! I quickly opened the card to discover the source of the surprise was my next-oldest sister, Tosha. Though I was dismayed not to have a secret admirer, the flowers imprinted an otherwise typical high-school day on my memory. I was truly grateful for my sister’s thoughtfulness.
Why not brighten an otherwise typical day with an orange rosette?
