I read Never Let Me Go because I knew I would love another Ishiguro and I was not disappointed. I have now read a literary fiction, a fantasy and a scifi from this author and every single one of them has been amazing. How is it possible for an author to seamlessly write so well across genres? It blows my mind. If you haven’t read any Ishiguro, I’d still start with Remains of the Day but if you like scifi, this is your book. It’s sad, beautiful and just exquisite writing. Here’s girl eleven. I did this while at Yosemite. Far from perfect but here we are.

And here it is. The end of elementary school. Talk about time passing fast. I feel like we just moved to the West Coast when it’s really been 13 years. I feel like David was just born when he’s now 11.5. I can’t believe he is going to be going to middle school in a matter of months. I can’t believe how wise, kind and articulate he is. I am just so in awe of him. Dear David. thank you. Thank you for who you are. Thank you for loving to read as much as I do. Thank you for choosing to fill my house with music. Thank you for being brave and performing in front of the whole school. Thank you for pushing your boundaries and doing the Tech Challenge when I could never do it. Thank you for making all of us love Physics. Thank you for putting up with my teaching you Math for hours and hours. Thank you for learning Spanish with me. Thank you for loving History. Thank you for always being curious. Thank you for being willing to show up and swim and play basketball even when you don’t want to. Thank you for always loving and always indulging my wishes. Thank you for being kind, thoughtful, considerate and loving. I love you so incredibly much. I feel like you’re a gift to me every single day and I am not sure what I did to deserve you but I want you to know that I will not take it for granted for a moment. I will cherish each and every day with you. Here’s to going on more adventures in Middle School!! Stories from 2016 is a year-long project for 2016. You can read more about my projects for 2016 here.

I read There’s Something I Want You to Do because it was a book club pick. I rarely read short stories so it was a nice change of pace for me. I wasn’t crazy about the book but I also didn’t hate it. If short stories are your thing, I think you might like it. Then again, if short stories are your thing, I would easily recommend Adam Haslett’s book first. It’s extraordinary. But I am still not sad I read it. Here’s girl six.

David’s school has this wonderful tradition where the 5th graders get to have an induction night. On this night, they are inducted the Graduates of their school. To celebrate together, they invite back 8th and 12th graders who graduated from the same school. So those who are graduating elementary, middle and high are in the same room. They invite each set of classes to come up and share where they go to school now, etc. It’s this wonderful night where our kids get to see the next few big stages in their life. Where they get to become a member of a wonderful club of kids who graduated from this school. Where they get to share their favorite memories with all these other kids. I am so grateful for all these wonderful traditions. All these wonderful ways of building and fostering community. Stories from 2016 is a year-long project for 2016.
