Window in the Sky. Ever wonder if there might be something of that kind up there above us? A window from where the faces of loved ones gaze down on us.

Love ones whose eyes shine at the sight of us and whose lips tremble with prayers for our well-being and happiness. Well, I've wondered about it. And that's why I want to tell you about a story I once heard.

A story about a window in the sky. It begins in Nora Robin's kitchen as she prepares Sunday dinner for her husband Bill and her seven-year-old daughter, Celie. Oh, I was just going to call you to get washed up, darling.

Father will be here any minute. Mom? Yes, Celie. Why don't I have a little brother, sister, like the other kids do? It's a long story, Celie. Go get washed. I like long stories, and I can always get washed.

Celie, you heard me. If father will be here any minute. Then I'll ask him. And I'll let you if he's late to dinner. In the meantime, Celie, just realize, please, that little brothers and sisters are always are expensive. No, we aren't poor. It isn't convenient right now.

You mean you have to buy them? Well, it amounts to that. Then where did Mrs. Mangini get the money to buy all she has? And Rosa says there's another one ordered. I don't know. And the Mangini kids have twice as much fun as I do. They've eaten gone orchestra.
