I am writing for myself and strangers. This is the only way that I can do it... Gertrude Stein

9/20/2004

Simple.

Because one of my children has been having some night time troubles (I won't be more specific to protect their anonymity) and because one of my children is afraid of the dark, which heightens the night time troubles, he spent 45 minutes tonight stringing up white bulbs throughout the hallway to make a path of light for little sleepers.

Because he loves them.

And for that, my love for him grows even more.

Men: don't let anyone kid you. There is nothing sexier to a woman than a man who loves her children.

Nothing.
