“Talk to her. When you think you’ve talked enough, talk more. You travel half the damn year for work. Build the basis for that solid relationship because that’s what’s going to keep you solid. And show her how you feel every day. Never make her question it. Make sure she knows.” “That why you and Mom have always been so solid?” I clap him on the back as we walk to the back door.

the bonehead you married told the girls that boys are bad, and that’s what you’re supposed to do if they tell you you’re pretty.”
