Sometimes I am amazed by the comprehension of how much those warm spring and summer evenings at my family's "old house" in Morgan County shaped me. And how my young awareness of it all was set afire by Ms. James' beautiful teaching of fourth grade science and reading against the backdrop of my parents' eager introductions to the same. Intense nostalgia, wonder, love, and a sort of longing.
I want to make that little girl proud. And give her more to look forward to than even she could imagine.
