A Memorial Day Celebration
A baby shower inside the café is wrapping up. Fifteen
or twenty women, 30-something, professional, wearing dresses and flowers. Twittering
soprano laughs and gleeful outbursts dance with ticks and clicks of heals and
glasses. Occasionally, one breaks from the group with a stack of presents, gift
bag dangling from elbow, helping to load the expectant’s SUV. Everything is fit
and beautiful, celebrating the American dream on this Memorial Day.
