Sleeping Angels...

When I was a child, my favorite movie was The Little Colonel. I watched it over and over. Shirley Temple's character was "Lloyd Sherman," and she was adorable in that movie. Hattie McDaniel portrayed a maid called "Mom Beck." As Mom Beck looked in on a sleeping Lloyd, she declared, "When your sleeping, you look like an angel out of heaven. Nobody would ever know you're a regular little devil." But try to envision Hattie McDaniel saying it as only she could. I must admit there is some truth to that sentiment. There are few things sweeter than looking at a sleeping child.
