I’m too dependent on praise. I want someone to pat me on the head and say “Good girl!” I want to feel that people like me and that they think I’m doing a good job. [Read More at Parenting]
Good post over there. We’re probably all like this more than we’d like to admit. It keeps us in check from becoming the worrier that you describe in your post a few days ago. Balance of extremes is ideal if we can get there.

Hey Kathryn-
Long time no talk! I just wanted to let you know that I saw a poster in Third Place Books announcing an author event you might be interested in. Leif Enger has a new book out (“So Brave, Young and Handsome”), and will be doing a reading at the bookstore. I can’t remember if it was in late June or early July, and they don’t have it on their online calendar yet, but I wanted to tell you about it before I forgot, since I remember how much you loved “Peace Like a River”. Anyway, if you’re interested I’m sure they’ll have more info about it soon. Hope all is well with you!
Kathryn, I think you are doing a GREAT job.
