Symbolism

          One day on a Thursday night, Jordan and Sam went to a Thanksgiving dinner. When the two boys entered the house, the family said hey and gave hugs to the two boys. Jordan hid the flowers behind his back to surprise his grandmother with some flowers his grandfather used to give to her all the time for Thanksgiving before his passing. When he showed the red roses to his grandmother, tears came out of her eyes and reminded her of the memories her husband and herself had together. He gave it to her and she gave him a huge hug. As Sam saw the moment Jordan gave the flowers to grandmother, he forgot he had made a special video and photo book to remind everyone about their memories over the past few years. He went to the car and got his computer and photo book. He gave the photo book to his grandmother and she was surprised by the unexpected present that no one asked for. He plugged his computer up to the TV and it was videos of family reunions and birthdays and special moments the family had experienced.    
          From the short paragraph, a few symbols represents something special about the family of Jordan and Sam. The flowers Jordan brought to the table represent kindness and caring and supporting his grandmother though his grandfather's death. The family photos and the video represents love and flashback of the good memories the family had and selflessness on Sam's part. . The symbols represents the feelings of a Thanksgiving dinner.

  1. I enjoyed reading your story, Kolin. I think you did a good job with adding many symbols instead of just one.
