POST OF THE WEEK: ❤️ A SWEET SURPRISE AT WEAVERVILLE PRIMARY
Thursday, September 18, was anything but ordinary for first grader Alleigh at Weaverville Primary. As she enjoyed her lunch, she had no idea that a very special visitor was waiting to see her.
After two years apart, Alleigh’s older sister, who lives in Washington state where her husband is stationed with the United States Army, was back in town for a short visit. Wanting to make the reunion unforgettable, Alleigh’s older sister arranged to surprise her at school.
