Fridays Nights Over Time

A very tired 13-year-old came back from camp yesterday. A few hours later, she was reading stories to her three-year-old nephew, over for a visit.

I had to leave and pick up one of her big brothers from soccer practice. When I returned, she told me, "I read him my favorite story from this book, Dad! 'The Little Red Hen.'"

My mind returned to when she was his size and age and I was reading this same story from this same book to her. A decade later, she's the reader.

We did a lot of other things during his visit.
