What a great story!! It reminds me so much of the historical American Girl stories - putting you in a time in history from the eyes of a child.

Thanks!! I really liked those books, I need to get some for the girls. And the Dear America books!

This is wonderful. A fantastic little parable.

Thanks!

Ooh, parable. You're right, that is what it feels like. (I just kind of let it write itself, really.)
