The little girl never looked up. She didn't hear Zelle's tiny wings softly strumming a rhythm very much like a heart beat. Zelle decided to try to offer her gift to the little girl.

Gently she lofted on the little girls back... reached down with her teeny tiny lips... and dropped the sweetest little kiss onto her exposed neck.

Just as her lips touched... everything got brighter all around. Silver glitter flowed freely all around the kiss. The little girl was shocked by the warmth filling her entire body and she JUMPED TO HER FEET! All at once, the tiny faerie felt her whole self being sucked up into the little girl. She didn't resist. She knew she'd found her home. Only a moment had passed before the tiny faerie was no more. All of her love filled the little girls heart. All of her body and her blood were new coursing through the little girls body. Zelle could see through the little girls eyes... she suddenly realized that she and the little girl were one in the same. These big giant hands she held in front of her face were just the right size to this little girl.

She also knew everything the little girl knew. Her name was Joanne. She was two years old, and she was all alone. Her twin died when she was born, and all the other sisters and brothers were in new homes. Her magical native American parents died recently...and nobody has come to hold her yet.
