Yesterday we had a barbecue pool party for D1 and her friends. Our job was to provide food and drinks, and we tried to stay out of their way. As they came to the grill to get their food, polite kids they were, they felt obligated to chit chat with us. We started to talk about their summer internships and study abroad, before we knew it we had a whole group of them around us. I was curious about their perspective on what they were learning at their internships, and they were asking us about our experience when we first started out. The conversation drifted to music, partying... I personally am very interested in everything our kids are doing. I find it very invigorating to be around young people because of their love of life and new ideas they bring.
