vacuum (5.5.11)

She walks to the schoolroom closet, grabs the vacuum and pushes it into the living room. She pugs it in with a small gasp. Smiling, she pushes the button that says “on/off” and begins to clean. Quickly she pushes the coffee table out of the way and vacuums under it, letting the cord out behind her. Then, with a huge grin, hits the button that says on/off. I turn back to the book I was reading when she walked back to put the vacuum in the closet. I look up and she says, with a sheepish grin:

“It turns off!”
