And they're not even teenagers yet...As for me, I'm just absorbing all the contradictions and both/ands to come this morning after I dropped off my five year old at real school for the first time. He has Snoopy hidden in his backpack for backup but he didn't look back as he walked in the door.

You’ve described “the in-between” brilliantly.

Thank you for writing.

You tell it so well. Thank you for the laughing. Balancing on that Bongo Board is a full time job; a total mind and body work out all the livelong dayyyyyy. Wait. It doesn’t stop at dark. Actually, it’s kind of forever.

Complicated?!! I’m still trying to figure out how to buy a purple, supercharged Rat Rod online for $92,000 - “It’s OK! Go ahead and buy it! I got the money upstairs!” - while he finds a red one he likes better for only $56,000! …all while child A loudly holds out for tiny cooking.
