Freckles
Rating:
Quality: (Quality: Unrated)
A grandmother and a little girl whose face was sprinkled with bright red
freckles spent the day at the zoo. The children were waiting in line to get
their cheeks painted by a local artist who was decorating them with tiger
paws.
"You've got so many freckles, there's no place to paint!" a boy in the line
cried.
Embarrassed, the little girl dropped her head. Her grandmother knelt down
next to her. "I love your freckles," she said.
"Not me," the girl replied.
"Well, when I was a little girl I always wanted freckles" she said, tracing
her finger across the child's cheek. "Freckles are beautiful!"
The girl looked up. "Really?"
"Of course," said the grandmother. "Why, just name me one thing that's
prettier than freckles."
The little girl peered into the old woman's smiling face. "Wrinkles," she
answered softly.
