"Jude!"

Her soft voice twinkled in his direction.

"What are you doing, silly?"

She got closer with only her voice.

"Jude. Come on, this isn't funny."

Her voice went up slightly in pitch.

"Jude!"

She danced through the snow with a little jump in her step.

"Hey, silly!"

Her voice was playful again.

"Jude!"

She sing-songed softly.

"Jamie!"

Her voice cut off as her head shot up.

"C'mon, honey!"

She grinned.

"Okay, Mommy! I haf-ta say bye to Jude!"

Her voice flowed sweetly towards her mother.

"Hurry, Jamie!"

She turned back and looked down.

"Good-bye-bye-bye, Jude!"

Her voice sang once again.

"Hope the snow is fun for you too!"

She leaned down and kissed him before jumping up.

"Mama's calling for me. I haf-ta go, Jude!"

Her voice was both excited and sad.

"I'll come back tomorrow! Bye!"

She turned and ran, kicking up the snow to reveal a gray stone.
