I never met the real Ivan, but my daughter and I tried to visit him once. It was a wet day and Ivan didn't like the rain, so he never came out.
At first I was sad, but then I realized: Ivan had control over his environment. I'm so glad he could choose where he wanted to be. ❤️

I’m reading The Witching Wind and loving lines like this: “…in the end I don’t think I’ll care if I was pretty, I think I’ll care if somebody loved me and if I loved somebody the best I could.”
