She Is Five Mom Apologizes
She thought she recognized her friend
She was excited and happy
She began screaming Hi Nancy across the grocery store line
Her mother was horrified
She is five, she apologized to strangers
Having no idea what had inspired this
When they got to the check-out girl
She said “Hi Angela” to the child.
The child was satisfied for this was Nancy.
The mother asked Nancy how she knew her child.
They were eight hours away from home after all.
Nancy used to work at Angela’s day care center.
