Early reader reactions: “Wow!” and “your style has bags of character” and “I just had whiskey, but I think this is pretty good.” Give this long-form caregiving narrative essay a read and share your story too if you’d like:

Last night my 9-year-old showed me his first essay. I gave him notes.
Today he got home and said, "I’ll finish it myself. I didn’t like your edits.” When I burst out laughing, he asked, “Is that the first time a writer’s been honest with you?”
