..while I was in a grueling, all-day chorus rehearsal:
Drew was pushing Rachel on the swing at Laurelhurst Park. After a while she said she wanted to get off. As Drew was helping her out, she said, "I want to let the other kids who want to swing have a chance."
"That's very good!" Drew replied. "You're sharing the swing! And you know that sharing..."
"Is caring!" Rachel replied.
And THEN she said:
"I care about EVERYbody. Even the people I don't know. Even the little babies with no hair. And I want to share everything with everyone."
It's this kind of story that, as I explained to Drew after dinner tonight, makes me feel that Rachel is the little ray of hope I've sent into the world to make it a better place.
