She told them a story or two to help pass the time. It was nearing late afternoon though so she figured staying here longer wasn't the best idea. Getting up, she started herding them back the way they had come. Soon they were leaving the forest behind and crossing the meadow. The kids started to gather flowers and make them into bouquets and wreaths. She grinned and helped the smaller ones make promise bracelets. It was charming really. Why their parents left them instead of spending time with them was beyond her. Soon they were back at the mission. She wished them well and went to check on Shakespeare.
