“Rissa, come look!!” I yell. “What? What?” She slides in the kitchen in her socked feet. I point out the window. “Look! The snow is falling all in slow motion! Isn’t it beautiful??” “OOOOOOOOH!

IT’S A THANKSGIVING MIRACLE!!!” I’m standing in Rissa’s doorway. My shock is palpable. I’ve never actually seen this – not while it was actually happening – not in my…
