I was rummaging around in the basement a couple of days ago and came across this valuable piece of art. Stephanie drew it in 3rd grade and it had been on the wall of my office at home for as long as I have had it. It was packed in the move last year and I have missed it. It will now grace my wall with these other works of art.
It reminded me of an interview I had many years
ago to become the Dean of a Cathedral in one of the plains states (I was the bridesmaid in the search) but the question was posed to me by an actual US Senator who was on the search committee. He asked me, “What is your greatest accomplishment?” The answer they expected of course was an explanation of all my work and academic accomplishments, which even then were pretty extensive. But I just smiled and surprised them, because I answered, “My kids.”
