Sydney and I are in Boston, after a long day of driving and a great evening and morning with friends in New York. Sydney, unfortunately, has to be writing a paper this weekend while I attend conference sessions; he’d much rather be out bird-watching on the coast. My parents are doing great things with the kids. Mom has taken over various house projects that I failed at (ahhh, difficult laundry) and attempting to win over our skittish cats, and Dad, the engineer, is patiently sitting down with his grandson to build Lego structures.
