Belle what an inspiring week in FTT as well as NYTimes! Congratulations and thank you, and the girls, and those wonderful students. It reminds me some of the book I’m enjoying, Sun House, David Duncan (The River Why -you probably know it). Madison- what an inspiring person, and you and the girls. 😍

I’m not sure they qualify as high literature. This later one reminds me of Richard Powers, both a bit of John Irving I guess.

Madison and Jake totally made our day--as did, to a smaller degree, that stately leopard frog!

Thank you, Belle. This is such a powerful and inspiring essay and I plan to share it widely! It is easy to feel overwhelmed by the news and you always provide ideas and example of how we all can join in with the hope of making things better. Thank you!
