Once upon a time, there
was a beautiful blue stroller and in this stroller, a lovely fairy princess,
named Heidi, traveled up and down the bumpy and meandering roads of her
Kingdom, Cabo Este.
Life was good, for Heidi and her stroller.
And then, one day, a dove landed.
She had heard of the magical adventures of Heidi and the beautiful blue stroller. She wished that she could travel the same roads, that Heidi had traveled.
Heidi, being the generous little girl that she is, and after much thought, decided to bequeath this marvelous invention to the newly landed little one.
Before saying good bye to her stroller, she sat down underneath a large Palo San Juan tree and put her arm around her stroller. She explained to her stroller that she was a big-little girl now and that it was time for another little girl to enjoy the same adventures she had.
The stroller was sad, because she loved Heidi and couldn't imagine life without her. But, she trusted Heidi and decided to be strong. Heidi wanted to share her joy with the little dove, and the stroller didn't want to let her down.
The beautiful blue stroller went to live with the little dove. At first, she was shy. She parked herself in a nice corner in the shade where she made herself comfortable while she waited to meet the little one.
She watched as big people came and went, but no little one. She started to worry, what if there is no little one? What if I am at the wrong house? Oh no! And I miss my Heidi so!
Ah! But, then, just before the stroller could shed a tear, she saw little Paloma and she knew she was at the right house!
Paloma smiled when she saw the beautiful blue stroller. She sat down, and buckled her seat belt, closed her eyes and made a wish, "I wish to travel up and down the bumpy and meandering roads of Cabo Este". Her wish came true, and off they went! Paloma clasped her little hands together and squealed in delight as she took in all the sights.
The beautiful blue stroller slept good that night. So did Paloma.
Life was good, for Paloma and her stroller.
Then one day, something odd happened. Two big people came to the house where Paloma and her stroller lived. They were carrying a large box. There was writing on the box. It read, 'Paloma only'. They were smiling and talking and before the beautiful blue stroller knew what had happened, there was another blue stroller!
How can that be?, thought the beautiful blue stroller.
I thought I was the only one, thought the beautiful blue stroller.
The new stroller was kind to the beautiful blue stroller. She said, I know how much you miss your Heidi. I have come to be with Paloma, so that you can return to your kingdom, with Heidi the lovely fairy princess.
Oh, the beautiful blue stroller was so happy! For even though she thought Paloma was very sweet, nobody could take the place of Heidi in her heart.
And she waited for Heidi to come for her so that they could travel up and down the bumpy and meandering roads of Cabo Este, just like they had before the dove had landed.

| While I may not have a picture of Heidi and Paloma in their beautiful blue strollers, here is a picture of these two several years later. Now, one is thirteen and the other just graduated from high school. Sweet memories live on in the temple of the soul. |
