West-Side Jesus
*
Went to Emily's school yesterday for the second annual "Round-Up." Familys are invited to come for the weekend and camp out. There's music and games and a fund-raising auction.
We watched Emily play volleyball and run around hugging her friends.
The Three Graces in the garden...

The school is rustic.
Plain.
Beautiful.
*
We listened to some music in the garden and I kept not being able to tear my eyes off of my daughter.
She's killing me.
*
She took us up to the ceramics studio and showed us her coil-built vase. "Westside Jesus and Satan." The reverse shows the devil throwing gang signs.

*
Our kid is an artist.
*
The rest of the weekend is "All Artwork, All The Time."
And vodka martinis.
*
It is great to be alive.

Of course, she's an artist.
How could she not be an artist?
My god, what a helluva vase.
Your kid has a singular vision, sir.
You must be prouder than proud.
(does she write too?)
Laurel-
Yeah, I guess I shouldn't be that surprised. And shit yes,
I am proud.
As far as I know, she doesn't write.
Yet.
Thanks, girl. As always, I am in your debt.
