In the navy

I didn't think much of my grade one teacher, Miss Williams. In spite of being a grown woman she talked in baby talk and wore way too much lycra for my tastes. I did, however, love it when she took us for Huff n' Puff and played nothing but The Village People. Her rendition of their hit song, In the Navy, was particularly spectacular.

Every time I wear this Secret Squirrel silk skirt I will think of Miss Williams and the pigtails she often wore. And I will hope that while she's still huffing and puffing, she's done away with the stretch fabrics and baby voice. I urge you all to hope along with me.
