Inside the dream, a case for wanting

[sovay]

I am having a miserable night on the mental weather/physical embodiment front, so I am recording for posterity that my godchild called me earlier this evening in order to tell me that I was their happy person to talk to and they wanted to tell me while they were thinking of it instead of risking forgetting it by the time of our next video chat. And that was really cool.

Solidarity on this, my godchildren wanting to talk to me about actual stuff is the best.

I'm so glad!

From mine, I have learned several things about the failure modes of remote learning, recommendations for children's TV I'd never heard of, and (this one thrills me) their opinions on Lloyd Alexander, who I introduced them to.

The book talk is so good. The rest of it is great, too, but when you really connect with books--ahh, amazing.
