teachers

"She's gotten so mean," her sister says.

But we are the ones who turned her float over when she was so perched on top with not one damp hair on her head. That girl was disappointed in us when she came up and understood the heartbreak of being so gullible as to sit on a float and talk with the girls.

But mama stood behind her and said, "That was mean. She trusted y'all."


And she was right.



Today I am grateful for sisters and a grammie and lessons that I should've learned by now.
