Over the next several days, it was hard to have even a moment alone with Caleb. He had meeting after meeting and then physical therapies and councils.
Ashleigh spent her time exploring the central hub of Summer. She spent the first couple of days at the school.
Renee had been one of the teachers for the youngest pups in the North. Ashleigh had spent many hours helping her with games and crafts. So, she thought she might be able to bring something small to these Summer pups.
She was surprised by how well it went. The teacher was hesitant when they met. Ashleigh assumed she had heard the rumors. But once they started playing together with the children and Ashleigh taught them to make a few simple crafts, the mood changed.
For three days, Ashleigh came and played with the children, made crafts with them, and told them stories from Winter or answered their questions about snow and ice. They loved her.
