My grandson chose to come to the vigil again today and he made three for much of the hour. His choice to join us is in part motivated by his 6 year old desire to get a truck driver to both wave and sound his air horn. He also knows the vigil is important to me and that I have strong feelings about creating peace. I've not been reticent to point out that that "cool jet" roaring over our town before a football game was built for only one purpose and that is to do harm to people and all other living things.
I am undeniably pleased that he is standing there with me. Today we talked about making a sign just for him - something easier for him to hold. Eventually we could count 5 for some part of the hour.
