Peace Out, Summer of 2019
It’s our last week of summer vacation. I’m feeling ready to go back to the city but also a little sad. I think this has been my favorite summer as a parent so far.

My mom once told me that my dad wasn’t that good with my sister and I as babies; he was way better with us when we got older. I didn’t really understand what she meant, until I watched it happen with my own kids.
