YiWingKi's Grasshopper

This is YiWingKi [pronounced /ee-wing-kee/].




Self-named, YiWingKi is one of the most affable, eager students I have ever met. I'm pretty sure she'll be fluent in English by the time she graduates high school.


Today she brought in a hand-folded paper envelope with a live grasshopper inside. She only had it because it was cute, she said, and that after lunch she would do the kind thing and return it to it's home near her house.




When I avoided holding it, citing that I don't like bugs because they have so many legs, YiWingKi graciously offered to remove a couple for me.


I declined.
