Dressed in a beautiful lavender dress
Dressed in a beautiful lavender dress, she sits happily in the dirt among the desert wildflowers, completely unconcerned with keeping her fancy dress clean. In her hands is nothing more than a simple plastic fork. Yet when the Arizona sun catches its surface, it becomes something extraordinary--a tiny flash of light that fascinates her.
Perhaps that is the magic of childhood: beauty doesn't have to be rare or expensive. A plastic fork can become a treasured toy. A patch of dirt can become a place of discovery. A fancy dress can be perfectly suited for exploring. The light dances. She watches.
