Dads

Gordon came into my room this evening crying.  I asked him what was wrong and he told me that he hasn't been sleeping well "these nights".  He said that the only way he can sleep without being frightened is if he watches a movie.  I suggested that he read a book.  He talked about how you can remember things forever and he was worried that he would be scared forever.  After talking to me for about 20 minutes he decided to go to bed.  On his way out of my room he said, "Dad is kind of the best at taking the fear away."
