"Romance happens over dinner. The candlelight, the wine. But at breakfast everything’s just as it is, in the light of day. No one wears lipstick to breakfast & this is where you talk about your day and the part of the roof that might leak this fall. You bring your real self to breakfast."

"Kids aren’t resilient. That’s something adults like to say to make themselves feel better. To pretend that kids don’t feel as deeply as adults do. But kids are everything that happens to them. They’re sponges. Everything bad, everything good. Every hurtful thing you say. Every loving one.
