I gave in today. My son has been telling me for weeks that he doesn't want to do something for which he had signed up at the beginning of the school year, and my response has been that he had to finish the school year's obligation. Today, I gave in. The thing is, he doesn't know it yet.

Sitting with my family today (my mother and father in-law, my wife and two boys) I pause to reflect on a life changing anniversary. Ten years ago today I was experiencing my first Thanksgiving alone. I was not only sitting with other people who were not part of my family, I was sitting down alone in a food court in a strange country: 10,000 miles away from my wife and eight week-old first-born son.

We were talking on the phone and I said, “you know, we could really use a ride in The Buttah.” “Amen,” he said. And he continued, “y'know, when I sold that car I feel like I lost a piece of my identity.” The Buttah was a late model American-made, two-door sedan the exact color of aged butter. The “he” in this scenario is an old friend from college: someone with whom I took a few small adventures in that rarefied time between graduating from college and becoming an actual adult.
