The Pansy

The ringing phone awakened me.

"Grandpa, Grandpa, is that you?" It was Libby, my five year old granddaughter, in Wenatachee.

"Yeah," I grumbled.

"Grandpa, I just saw a pansy in our garden. It's the first pansy that I have seen in my whole life!

"A pansy in February?"

"Yes, Grandpa and I can't wait until after pre-school to water it. Bye, I have to go to school."

Some are excited by new things; most never notice them.
