AngelSpeak

A huge file preceded the new little girl who came to our school this week. She is only five years old, and according to the paperwork she has an infinite checklist of issues.

One being that she can only speak one word at a time.

I got to meet her on Wedesday. She is a beautiful child. Angelic in look and demeanor. We spent about 45 minutes painting together. It was wonderful.

Thursday, in a room adjoining the principal's office, we were peacefully playing with a puppet practicing "ThankYou's" and "You'reWelcome's."

The principal keeps her pet dog with her at school, and as it was time for Hazel's daily walk, she began to whine and whimper loudly from her crate.

Suddenly, this dainty, clear-eyed, darling child looked up from the pile of plastic squares we'd been sharing and says:

"HolyShit!Whatwasthat?"
