What a day and evening. Yesterday I had pushed my 12 yr. old son all afternoon to complete his writing assignment on St. Aquinas for his history project. He delayed all day writers block and here he was in the middle of the election trying to write that thing! I was getting very exasperated with him wanting to focus on the TV. At one point he admitted he was scared and I realized how he was also astutely aware of how serious it was. I consoled him and luckily the path for him began to light up-we were soon joyfully together on the couch and the paper abandoned....WOW! still in shock.
