Beautiful is a far too difficult word for an eight-year-old, Michael. For difficult words I used to make up little rhythms and songs...the only way.

But those poor nuns...if people only knew what conditions they labored under.

Yet another story for you, Debra Groves Harman, MEd!

I worked with a couple of nuns in mufti, and they were such fun, not like those old darlings trachled under the weight of their modesty garbs. We also used to enjoy a drink together!

Enjoyable read, Michael.
