On the last day of class Evan arrived in
his Batman shirt and made a crime-fighting film. I don’t recall what he named
it. I was so taken by the fixation this little boy had on creating. He had no
need for daydreaming, silliness, roughhousing or any of those wonderful job
descriptions of a seven-year-old. He was very willing to take advice, but his
eyes never left the scene he created from Legos and imagination. On the last
day his Grandmother arrived to take him home and she opened the book on Evan
for me. She said his mother died recently after being sick for several years.
