Creative Collaboration With Your Child is Awesome
Ten out of ten would highly recommend
Parenting is a roller coaster of ups and downs. There are the days your child is projectile vomiting and then there are the days you look at the fantastic person you somehow managed to grow and nourish with your own body and you marvel at who they have become.
My middle child graduated from college this year and started a great job in a city on the other side of the Atlantic Ocean from me. We may be far apart physically but we talk more often than we did when she was in college. Now we are also partners in creative crime.
I write stories. My daughter enjoys voice acting. It’s like the Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups of my childhood. Two great tastes that taste great together.
You can find the results of our delicious collaboration here. Catherine DeJager recorded my story, Necessity is the Mother of Invention.
What a gift for me, and I like to think the world as well, to have my story come to life through the talented voice of my daughter…
