    I took a little blogging break, and came back to this wonderful poem. Congratulations to this young man who knows how to make us feel deeply, how to bring us into his world and live there for a few moments in time. It is a gift.

    The apple never falls far from the tree. Never more true than in his case.

    This is how you know you're doing it right, the hardest thing in the world, parenting, and harder for Sophie's pain. You're raising three extraordinary people who've taken their heritage and their parent's guidance and their own inner courage and are growing. Congratulations Oliver for putting your thoughts into words that tell truth. And congratulations, Elizabeth on your wonderful children.
