“Loss had alerted us to earlier memories, and they sat in contrast to the parent we thought we knew.”
Sari Fordham, Wait for God to Notice

“My father attended a one-room Adventist school. He could barely read or write, and during class, he wandered around the room, no doubt annoying his teacher. Yet she responded with kindness, igniting in my father an admiration for the profession and an awareness of how one teacher can change someone’s life trajectory.”
Sari Fordham, Wait for God to Notice

“We know and don’t know our parents in equal parts.”
Sari Fordham, Wait for God to Notice
