It might have been a really bad stressful day, feeling trapped inside by the cold and snow which surrounded us.My husband got dressed and 1that he was going outside to build a giant snowman.
At first he stood alone ， 2massive amounts of snow.Soon after a neighbor joined in.Then we reluctantly put on our snow gear and3outside.It wasn't long4we were smiling and enjoying the 5of snow that Mother Nature had provided.Others came to our yard one by one to give a 6in the making of our giant snowman.
In the end we all stood back and7at what we had created.He was eleven feet high, twentyfive feet around at the base and 8with many household items supplied by various9 ． People drove by and smiled.Some even stopped just to enjoy his10 ．
With the passing of time, the spring made its 11back into our yard and the snowman changed form12 ． In a final effort to save what we created for just a little bit 13 ， somebody stopped by and changed the snowman's 14to look like a rabbit.As I prepared for the start of another week, I decided to 15my email before going to bed.I found a (an) 16message that contained the subject line：17the snowman.
The email said：your neighbor looks on in disbelief！Now you people are relishing(享受)the sounds and smells, along with18of spring.But I am sure people will never forget the 19energy displayed in Mr.Snowman.You and your family keep it up, as this is what the world needs now.More power to you and your loved ones, keep 20with the world around!
Perhaps it was more than a snowman we built that day.The message seems clear.Our environments will turn out to be what we make of them.The possibilities are endless and the choice is ours.
