Mrs Miracle Page #5

Really put your heart into it!

And the angel said unto him, ''Fear not!

''For behold,

l bring you good tidings of great joy!''

ls she okay?

-She looks okay.

-She's breathing.

Help! Help! She's fallen!

l think she's moving.

-You've got to be kidding me.

-No, l'm serious.

The school needs someone to come in

and take over the pageant right now.

So naturally you thought of me?

Well, who else? l mean, you've been

doing theater since we were kids,

acting and directing, and...

Come on. You've done more plays

than anyone else l know.

Kate, that was a long time ago.

Yeah, but you still love it. Come on, fess up.

You miss it sometimes.

That's not the point.

l run a travel agency now.

Well, you have a great staff here,

and they're going to keep things humming

while you're in rehearsals.

There's not going to be any rehearsals.

Come on, Reba. Those kids,

they could learn so much from you.

You can pass on

some of that special stage magic.

-Please.

-Come on.

The parents are taking care

of all the costumes and sets.

Mrs. Darling already has them learning

all the music.

You really iust have to come in

and direct traffic a little, and besides...

Besides?

Well, Christmas hasn't exactly

been easy for you the last few years,

and l thought that with the pageant,

and the kids, and everything...

l would look a little less pathetic?

No. No, you could get back

some of what you've been missing.

Look, there is a part of me that thinks

that this might be fun, but l'm...

Okay.

Well, you don't have to decide right now.

You iust think about it,

and you come and see me after school.

-Kate.

-Please? Please, Reba, please?

Just say you'll think about it.

Fine, l will think about it.

Thank you. Thank you.

Thank you!

Okay.

Excuse me.

Hi.

-Hello.

-Hi.

Wow.

Don't you wish you could iust hug them?

Sure.

They're a little shorthanded today,

aren't they?

l'd say.

You know, it's all in the timing, honey.

What is?

Finding someone to help.

Someone who's ready

to take the leap of faith.

Dust themselves off

and get back in the game.

l suppose.

Where is it?

There it is. Okay.

l can get it. l can get it. l can get it. It's okay!

l got it! Coming through, coming through.

Gotcha!

Hi.

She's pretty.

Don't mind me.

Just keep playing and having fun.

Okay.

Something smells good.

Hey, guys.

Dad, look!

-Where did you get that?

-Mrs. Miracle found it.

l didn't even remember

what Mommy looked like.

Me neither!

All right, you guys go to your room,

-and l'll be right in, okay?

-Okay.

Soup's on in five minutes.

Where did you get this?

The boys were so full of questions

about their mother.
