We had just gone to the park or to Mass (I don’t really remember exactly) then and I was flushed with joy and secure in the love of my parents – I was wearing a nice pinafore dress and my parents had just bought me a pack of popcorn, each sugar-glazed kernel a color of the rainbow. It was a real treat because it was more expensive than the plain salted popcorn and my parents didn’t buy that for me every day.
