Mari was never a very good singer. She could hum and cheer and recite poetry just fine. But her singing voice was anything but great. Still, Mari always had a beat in her head. It was as if she had eaten a tiny radio as a baby, and its battery never gave up. So, there was always a song playing, always lyrics floating about in her head, always a melody of sorts. Today's melody was brought you in part by the wonderful people of Disney.
They had been watching Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs in the 1st grade classroom, so naturally, she had "Some Day My Prince Will Come" stuck in her head as she waltzed around the empty teacher's lounge getting coffee for herself and Oli. She wasn't sure if it was her fault or not, but Oli seemed to be getting addicted to this afternoon coffee business. Or maybe she was being polite in not denying Mari of her 3 PM coffee run. Her Cuban blood simply demanded it. She twirled about as she hugged the bag of sugar tightly. It certainly was a good day to be a princess.
