This week has been Vacation Bible School. We go to church in a really small town, so all the churches, (except the LDS) join together and have a community VBS. Lot's of fun. I usually do the games.
Anyway, this little girl, about 2 or 3 has come every day. Everyday she shows up with her class. And, everyday, she is completely in her own little world. The first day she followed a bug crawling across the grass. Yesterday, while I was playing a cross between hot-potato and musical chairs with the preschoolers, she sat, covered with peanut butter from head to toe, licking the little paper cup her peanut butter from snack was served in. We had to toss the "potato" around her as she sat and licked.
Today, she twirled around. She just twirled around and around and around. She got dizzy and fell a couple of times, but then she'd get back up and twirl some more.
This whole entire week, every single day, she has had the biggest most cheerful "light-up-the-whole-world-smile" that anyone has ever seen. What a little joy to be around!
Here's to those who march to the beat of a different drummer.
