Little Chetelina Atkinson was back at The Whistle & Thistle this morning. It was only 10 days ago that she spoke her first word, right there at The W&T.
“Favre!”
Today her father, Chet, was crying into his persimmonmeal.
“What’s wrong with him?” asked Edith Whistle.
“Chetelina has learned a new word,” said Roselina.
“That’s good, isn’t it?” asked Edith.
“Not if it’s…”
“Retire! Favre! Retire!” cried Chetelina.
[Author’s Note: In the obits of the Princeton, IN newspaper online today, there was one for a woman named “Nicyann.” Durn. Now I can’t use that in PC.]
