The Lineup

Tonight at dinner, my daughter showed us a collection of photographs of her “friends,” the children in her kindergarten class.

There are twenty-two people in her class, including her. Like a champ, she named each one. We heard familiar names: the two girls she spends the most time with and the boys she plays with at recess, in particular.

We heard details about each kid and what their favorite animals were.

In the top row, third from the left is my daughter smiling without showing her teeth.

“Who’s that?” my wife asked.

“That’s me, silly!” she said.
