He Scribbles

On the last school day before Thanksgiving, Kevin and I attended Bridgette's classroom performance.  With a pilgrim bonnet on her head, Bridgette stood proudly on the last row and recited her lines.  "B is for big ship..."

I was surprised that Bridgette seemed taller than her classmates, and I asked her about it after the show.  She informed me that she was not the tallest kid her class, but the tallest kid wasn't there that day.

Then, she motioned for me to bend my ear low towards her mouth.  "He scribbles!"

She whispered this information as if passing on something scandalous.  I only wish that scribbling were the greatest of my flaws!
