one miracle of St. Audrey

Audrey, a child in the first grade, exercises a sort of fascination over Lola, who believes every word Audrey says. "Once Audrey was at the top of the climbing structure [at school], and she fell off, but a big wind came, and she floated, and she landed on top of the roof [of the kindergarten building]!"

"Lola, you know THAT'S NOT TRUE!" said big sister Iris, who finds these Audrey stories maddening.

"But Audrey told me," insisted Lola.

We haven't so much as had a playdate with this very colorful young person yet. She sounds like a real live wire, though.

I have seen Audrey. She is a cute little girl who lives, breathes, and has Lola under her spell when she opens her mouth.
