PJ, I had a deja vu moment with your story. Once got a call from our son's teacher, who was introducing fractions. She explained that they used pizzas as the teaching tool and each child brought in a dollar for his/her share. I said "Fine, when do you need the money?" Long silence, then she said, "Well, actually your son said he doesn't like store-bought pizza, and that you and your husband always make your own, and that you would make it for the class." (grade 2). So, pizza for 30 (kids, teachers and parent volunteers). He, too, grew up to be a super adult. Sigh... Love for your kids takes you to places you never would have imagined, pre-parenthood. Good AND challenging. Isn't it nice he had such a finely honed palate, even at that age? You and your husband must be superior pizza chefs! :) PJH
