My brother said to me, “You shouldn’t say shit…” and I sprinted to my parents to tell them that Jason had sworn. Life was good.

By the time she came in, there were dozens of fireflies all over the room. It was beautiful to behold. Then they all died.

My husband was also an only. We had two kids, five years apart. The older girl preferred to ignore the younger intruder.

I didn’t even have to be clever about this, I’d just get him to go down there with me to play, then shut off the lights, run upstairs and shut the door. Poor kid couldn’t even see his way to the light switches.
