Second, I apologize for not responding to Something Found a while ago. I think I didn't because I didn't know how to find all the right words that could gather my emotions.

wrote aigs—not eggs—on the breakfast menu chalkboard. My mother, the prodigious speller, looked on horrified.I just adore this! I love it all.
