From "The Good Farmer and the Bad Farmer, A Story of Woodchuck" by Ted Pelton

:

L ucinda spoke instead.

Woodchuck she said.

I knew one day you would return to my bidding.

I see you have already met your children.

Children introduce yourselves she said to the two who bore the likeness of their father.

I am Woodchuck said the boy.

I am Woodchuck said the girl.

I named them both after you said Lucinda.

[Happy Summer Solstice (23:31 EDT -- so early tomorrow in European time zones) to everyone who observes it, happy Father's Day to everyone celebrating that, and blessed Pentecost to everyone celebrating it on the Orthodox calendar!]
