"One in particular catches my eye, because I've met him, and also his father. "You're kidding me? The little guy who came over on the boat last week? He's a baby!" Okay, not a baby , and I guess it was only last week from my perspective. Simon finally convinced the elder Kiernan Dunne to bring his family over from Ireland. I helped, mostly by spending a few minutes talking to the woman, Cliona. She seemed a little in awe of me, probably because Simon was laying on the Sister Prudence stuff really thick. I told Cliona about the Farm up near Chicago--one of the five we have in the US now--and how there was plenty of work for them, and plenty of food. The kid clutching her skirts couldn't have been much more than four, a dark-eyed little guy who didn't say much. He didn't look like he'd been eating much lately either. "A baby?" Older-Me rolls her eyes. "Do you know how stupid that sounds? By all means, jump forward to when he's eighty if that's what turns you on. You saw him back at the Cyrus Teed resurrection, didn't you? He's growing up nicely."
