Our son leaves for college today and we are, as many feel in this moment, all over the map. Proud as can be – but aching in the notion that the house will be quieter without all the wonderful noise.

I’ve gotten to know Christopher Cross this year. He has a wonderful new album called “Dr. Faith” and on it is a song I think is just exquisite. It’s called “Hey Kid” and I cut a little montage to it in honor of our wonderful son – and in a way – to all the parents this month with lumps in their throats as their beloveds hit the road.
