Reaching into the basket, she touched and called out each item’s name from her “End of School Gala” list: “Bagged picnic lunches, plastic table cloth, ball, water balloons, sidewalk chalk, measuring tape, clothesline piece, paper cups, paper towels, hand sanitizer. That’s it!” smiled Anita. “It’s time to invite my family to come outside. Let the fun begin!”
