CROSS COUNTRY: When mah brother Tom and I left Port
land on Christmas Eve, a mother with four little girls had the
seats opposite us on the train. Their ages were 6, 41 -, and a pair
of twins 3 years old . . . every one of them cute as a bug, and
plenty well trained. They were going to Denver--two nights and
a full day . . . and you never saw a better behaved bunch of kids.
My favorite was the little J^-year-old one. She was a cutie
hazel eyes, hair tied in the back with a red ribbon, and a sort of
torehy whiskey voice. Coming out of that little one it was some
thing. Her name was Bonnie Jean, and her mother affectionately
called her “Toughie”. I called her Bonnie Jean.
When she wasn’t bouncing milk cartons off the twin's heads,
she could be very gentle. That Friday afternoon she was standing
up on the seat beside us, very intent on untangling some ribbon
off a package someone had given her, and I heard her say some
thing to herself
"What was that?” I asked, not having quite gotten it.
Well, she turned those big innocent hazel eyes on me and said,
1 mNho“ elaboration, no chit-chat, just that simple statement, “I’m
happy,” and she turned back contentedly to her task of straighten
ing and smoothing the ribbon.
