Daisy Fay

“I woke up out of the ether with an utterly abandoned feeling
and asked the nurse right away if it was a boy or a girl. She
told me it was a girl, and so I turned my head away and wept.
“All right,” I said, “I’m glad it's a girl. And I hope she’ll be a
fool—that’s the best thing a girl can be in this world, a
beautiful little fool.”
