How I know I’m doing a good job… When Charlotte (18 y/o), back from a weekend trip, steps out of the commuter plane and, obviously having spotted me before she exited, starts smiling and waving excitedly.  When she does chores without being asked or reminded.  When, knowing I’m tired or not feeling 100%, she offers to hang [...]
