I covet the moments where our communication and time spent with each other is positive, full of mutual respect and fun. 'Karate Night' is filled with those moments.]]></description>

I told her I was overwhelmed with memories of looking for my OWN parents in the crowd of my middle school during similar events.

I choked back a tear and choked up a "Thanks..." and told the two 20-somethings that being a parent is extremely hard, and that the rewards are incomprehensible, and I loved it.]]></description>
