A conversation with Lane, my 8-year-old son, about the tradeoff of trick-or-treating rather than story time tonight:
Me: �Come on, what�s better? Me reading a chapter of Harry Potter with you, or you going out and getting a ton of candy and hanging out with your friends?� (thinking this is basically a rhetorical question)
Lane: (after a brief pause for consideration) �Well, reading with you is better, because you�re family and I love you and that�s more important than anything else.�
