We went to Reno when I was I think eight or nine. We didn't get there in time for the elephant show (at one of the casinos), so my daddy talked the handler into letting us into Bertha & Tina's stable, and they did some tricks, it was our own private show. We got coloring books & little plush elephants & we even went to the Nevada state fair.

An archaeologist, a writer, a jazz clarinetist, an oceanographer.

Jayden and I were sitting on a bench, waiting for the bus. We were talking about the cars that drove past, the birds flying around, a flag flapping in the wind. I said something to him, and when he didn't respond I looked over at him; he was gazing up into the clouds. I said "you lost in thought?" and he said "no, I'm right here Mommy"...
