When I was
5 my parents told me we were going to Disneyworld. I was so excited I
put my Mickey Mouse ears on and practiced what I would say to Donald
Duck. I was so caught up in my excitement I didn’t notice I was
the only one that boarded the plane. Then I noticed the ticket was
one-way. Have you ever stepped off a plane in Tehran with Mickey Mouse
ears on? I bet my parents got a laugh about that one—wherever
they are. |
