The next morning, I got up early and put my wand back in the bottom of my drawer. I was afraid that one of my playmates would come in and find my magic wand. I was really afriad that they would make fun of me. On the way to school, my mother told me that she was very proud of me and that she loved me very much. She told me to get Grandma to walk me to the ice cream store and then home after school. Grandma Michaela was a short woman whom my father said "was as tall as she was wide." She smelled sweet. I loved her. I was really looking forward to telling Miss Jeannette that her magic wand had worked!
