veronica


It is a well known fact amongst our family that Veronica could talk the teeth off a horse. It has been speculated amongst our family that, if not interrupted, she could talk on and on, indefinitely, until her tongue fell out. On our recent vacation, Veronica was enlightening us all to some particular bit of knowledge she had been gaining from a book. I was making breakfast I think. Others were lounging about the house or porch enjoying the morning. While Veronica was talking, Valerie casually wandered up to her and began braiding her mouth shut. And she was quiet for the rest of the morning.
