Please find one of Mum's favourite poems, "When I was at the party," Said Betty, aged just four, "A little girl fell off her chair Right down upon the floor; And all the other little girls Began to laugh, but me-- I didn't laugh a single bit," Said Betty seriously. "Why not?" her mother asked her, Full of delight to find That Betty--bless her little heart!-- Had been so sweetly kind. "Why didn't you laugh, my darling? Or don't you like to tell?" "I didn't laugh," said Betty, " 'Cause me it was that fell."
