Candy Land was a game I wouldn’t have particularly wanted to play, but that’s what the girls wanted! Three little girls and I sat around a table, playing the game. One thing I learned was that I seemed to have very poor luck, moving one or two color spaces at a time. Another thing I learned was that young innocent children can be really good cheaters at board games. To my surprise, two of the three girls cheated consistently during the game! When I would teasingly call them out on their cheating, they could giggle in a mischievous little laugh. To say the least, I lost miserably without cheating. The winner though, to show good karma is a true thing, was the youngest girl named Paloma, maybe 5 years old. It seemed to be a symbolic message from the universe saying that slow and steady does win the race.
