Minal's homework in honor of Martin Luther King Jr: "Write or draw 3 of your dreams"
Dream #1: a magic pot so I can get whatever I want
Dream #2: a bed decorated with flowers for Nana so Nani can smile
Dream #3: wallet for (homeless) man so he doesn't have to clean car windows at street corners.
And on the way to school she asks: "What do dreams do in the daytime?"
