Another Pen Pal



So a letter comes for Em from Italy, and naturally I think its the pen pal who sent her the over-the-transom note awhile back. I didn't look that closely at the envelope, how many people does my kid know in Italy? More than zero but less than one.

As soon as I hand it to her, she says, 'That's not ______.' She remembered the name of the kiddo she'd written back to, something I'd failed to do.

It was a new first letter. Maybe the word is out at some Italian elementary school that Em is a live one, you'll get a reply that will get the teacher off your back...
