When we were young our lives consisted of questions.

The questions we needed answered. The hundreds of questions our parents and teachers asked.

But a ten year old was never meant to have all the answers.

My classmates attended the big party. Stupid me promised to dance with every girl. Boys stood on one side, girls on the other.

My friends taunted me. “Go dance.”

With wobbly knees and sweaty forehead, I tried to look cool.

Then I spotted Lisa Big Boobies Barelli. Oh my, she could fill up a B-cup like no other girl in school.

Ever since kindergarten when she first smiled at me, I knew the other girls didn’t compare. Lisa had all her teeth.

From across the room I admired her.

  1. Oh…my…goodness!!! This is absolutely adorable in every single way possible. Lisa was a cutie with all her teeth and ability to fill her B cup 😉 Good for her and nice of you to notice!

    Even as an adult, there are very few pictures of a smiling me. Sigh.

            I wonder if your lovely Allie sees the pain that inevitably escapes now and then. It’s still there, you know.

    1. Sorry, Paul, I don’t participate in the accepting or giving of awards. I am so tied up with my writing and trying to market my work, I barely have time for my family. Thank you for thinking of me. I am honored that youthought I deserved this award. Thanks and be well.
