This is for the little girl who was waiting for the Easter egg hunt to start in Mason, Texas, last spring.
I was sitting on the steps of the courthouse, expecting my granddaughters. It was a lovely day, with lots of colorful eggs scattered on the grounds.
The little girl was with a group of adults and other kids, family I supposed.

Mason's victory over Brazos on Friday night sets up a classic rematch for the Punchers against long-time rival, Refugio, this coming Friday.

Mason scored early in the first quarter on a run by Klay Klaerner.

It’s the job of first responders to rush into danger, a calling if you will, rather than a job. It takes a special kind of soul to pursue this calling and so it’s all the more deeply felt when we loose a fellow responder.
Mason lost one of their own in Koby Smith, not rushing into danger, just trying to get home late one night.
Storytime is held Mondays at 10:30 am in the Kid’s Zone of the Mason Co. M. Beven Eckert Memorial Library. Come for holiday stories and crafts in the month of December.
