Family Text

Kayak, nets and buckets: What more do cousins need to explore lily pad waters, spending our summer vacation’s last lakeside day together, living a memory that will probably resurface as family story.


When they retell the tale at some future family dinner, I might throw my own stories in the mix – summer days spent in Maryland’s Rock Creek Park.



Today, though, I said nothing, happy to watch them leave cell phones in the boathouse.





Okay – so what if they text-message friends tonight?

Next week, they might just try text-messaging one another.
