Bird feeder

Jacob’s not that committed to his studies. He tucks projects away and just leaves them tucked. As more of them build up his answers to questions about how things are going at school get smaller, more stubborn, like his mouth. He’s fine, he says.

Larry and I are learning not to wait. We prod with more confidence. We’re alternately gentle then assured where we used to be ferocious. Jacob still denies. He disseminates. Like how he might deal with hungry birds.

It would be nice to get a bird feeder. Maybe for Chanukah. I hate always buying things we don’t need just for the sake of buying something. A bird feeder would be really nice.
