I got a little peek into Kaitlyns day today… completely undetected and unexpected.
I was driving through town and saw her class walking back to school from the library. (The school is small; it does not have its own library. The kids walk to the one in town. Just like they take a bus to the towns gym.)
So there was her class, all lined up in twos, like the animals going onto the ark. They stayed in their lines and walked along, really looking rather sober. I scanned the neat rows of kids looking for Kaitlyn. I shouldnt have had to. There she was — in the very back, not holding hands with the kid shed been paired up with, skipping and singing. She really must mystify her teacher. She is not at all like the other kids. And, really, Im glad she isnt.
She knows she’s a short-timer there.
