A short while ago, my little boy told me something that shattered my world. I had been preparing breakfast for him, watching the early morning sunlight dappling his head, bent in concentration over the card he was busy making. Our companiable hush was only broken when he enquired how to spell “because,” and then, several minutes later, “people.” I looked over his shoulder — the carefully inscribed message was poignant but full of kindness.
