The Eternal Optimist

Middle Sister is having a good afternoon. There were Apple Puffs waiting on the table for after-school snack. She's going to her best friend's house after her homework is finished.

The homework is going well, too. "Look at my handwriting," she bragged to me, waving a notebook filled with an assignment written in purple cursive.

"Very neat," I complimented her.

"Yeah! And it's purple too."

It just doesn't get any better than that, I guess.
