“She’s gorgeous, Mama,” I managed to murmur.

Mama smiled, satisfied.

“But Mama,” I added slowly, “she doesn’t look like the Pilgrim woman in the picture in my reading book.”

“No?” Mama said.

“She looks like you in that photograph you have that was taken when you were a girl.”

Mama’s smile turned into a laugh. “Of course. I did that on purpose.”

“You did, Mama? Why?”

“What’s a Pilgrim, shaynkeit?” Mama asked. “A Pilgrim is someone who came here from the other side to find freedom. That’s me, Molly. I’m a Pilgrim!”

I was sure there was something wrong with what Mama was saying. She was not the kind of Pilgrim Miss Stickley or the reading book had been talking about. But it was too late to make another doll now. All I could do was take the only one I had to school with me.
