The Dad speaks about Crazy Wednesday

My kid stood up for me with my terrifying wife?

We're never fully confident that the values we hold are successfully passed along to our kids. Even so, I'm seeing so many encouraging signs from this 15-year-old, the elder brother of the ballet dancer, that my heart fills with love and pride and admiration.

There's talk of the daughter spending the summer in an intensive program, a few hundred miles away from home. Well, if that comes about, it will certainly make Wednesdays a little easier to manage. You'd probably laugh if I diagrammed the course my wife describes in the previous post. Back and forth, zigging and zagging--it turns out to be a small sacrifice for a couple of absolutely wonderful children.
