But, somehow he made the squeeze in the deck. He said she was standing at the door of her classroom with the saddest eyes when she saw him come running into the front door of the school (her room is next to the front door).  Her sad eyes turned quickly to excitement when she saw it was him and she knew he would get to read her favorite book, the book that allows him to use his loudest (and normal) voice that always makes her howl with laughter.
