Lovely! Must be the best feeling in the world, knowing you and your wife are doing it right against impossibly powerful forces trying to do the opposite. Congrats Joe!!

I spoke to my partner who led the charge on this and she pointed out that this effort to find books that would appeal to our daughter was not a single magical moment. This was a labor of love over years checking out piles of books from our library to see if anything would be of interest. And finally, the piles of books began to produce nibbles of interest and then a book was read, and more, and more. It takes time and patience and love to seed the ground, provide the material and hope for something to change. I am so grateful for libraries to check out piles of books - why buy, right? and for my wife to finally touch our daughter’s heart and mind with something outside the Matrix, something real and good.
