“Guess what,” I said to them in a quieter voice. “I found a bird yesterday. It was lost from its mother. So I put it in a box, and we made a nest for it and we’re feeding it about every two hours, and I named it Magic Tastee!”

“Cool,” said Natalie.

“Awesome,” said Nancy.

“Neat,” said Hannie.

“What kind of name is Magic Tastee?” asked Ricky.

I made a face at him. Ricky is a gigundo pain.

A few more kids came into the room. Nancy told them about Magic Tastee. They had lots of questions. Everyone gathered around me. I just love being in the middle of things and answering questions.

As soon as I got home that day, I ran to Magic Tastee’s box. He was fluttering around, chirping happily.

“Aw, you are so cute, Magic Tastee,” I told him. I stroked his feathers. “I love you. Do you know that?”

Mommy came into my room then.

“How was he today?” I asked.

“Full of beans,” said Mom. “He seems to love his food.”

“Well, I’ll take over now,” I said importantly. “Oh, Mommy, I am so glad to have a pet at last.”

Mommy looked thoughtful. “One day soon he will learn to fly, Karen,” she said.

But I was not listening. I was gathering up Magic Tastee’s nest so I could warm it for him again.
