Schuyler loves the new. She loves to travel and meet new people and "wow..." at the world in an awed whisper. Any of you who have met her can attest to how no one is a stranger to Schuyler, not for long. Her total lack of guile and shyness and hesitation is maddening for her worried parents, but it's one of the things that makes Schuyler uniquely Schuyler.
She and Julie left for Michigan this morning. Julie was nervous and flustered as she always is whenever she travels, and I was mopey and twitchy as I always am whenever they go away without me, into a world that I have always been convinced wants to devour my child.
But Schuyler saw this trip the same way she sees the whole world, as her next adventure. I have no idea where she gets that, but I wish it were from me.
life is one big adventure Rob. really it is. take care :)

I hope they have fun! And remember that you're not to become Robba the Hutt while they're gone ;)
ReplyDeleteIt's a gift to have the ability to see and experience life as an adventure.
ReplyDeleteI'm beginning to see life that way now, in my 30's.
Clearly, this means you're supposed to get it from her.
