It was a rainy day at the ECE Center on Tower Road. There was a break just about recess time that allowed the children from Beth's class to go outside on the playground and get some air.

The little 4 and 5 year olds that could walk, ambled about the playground, while the kids in wheelchairs sat and watched.

Eric looked down at the ground and there lay a fat, wiggly earth worm. As boys are won't to do Eric couldn't resist picking up the worm and dangling it from his fingers. The children gathered round.

Audra too sat and looked at the worm, mouth open, drooling.

Suddenly Eric got an idea on what to do with the worm, he would feed it to Audra. As his hand approched her mouth, Audra clenched her teeth shut and shook her head from side to side. No way was she eating a worm. The aid finally stepped in and called the children in from recess. The story was recounted to me later that day.
