Maya writes before she can read
The other day she came home very proud: "I drew a picture of all the family and I sounded all the names and wrote them down"
Yesterday she complained that she cannot read, Surprised, I asked her about all the names she wrote."Maya I could read. Mama too. But not the others" "But you wrote them" "Yes, but I couldn't remember which one was grandma and which one grandpa.

I made "The Clark Tribune! Sept 6:
. The quote of the day comes
from Leah Faerstein:
"A very anti-military democratic voter was converted to support Clark by what he said
... it was the raising of the political discourse 'not Iraq, not the economy, but the
need to restore the debate in society as basis for making decisions.
Dean surged in polls because he identified our anger. But it's Clark who figured
the real cause. It's not the unwarranted war - upsetting as it was. It's being called
focus groups. It's not the destroying of the economy as much as the stealing of my
vote. This is the theme: 'It's the Democracy, stupid'"

Families for Peaceful Tomorrow
organized a pilgrimage to Ground Zero from Union Square - Circle of Hope. We were to encircle the site with our lights and observe silence in the memory - not only of those who died on September 11, but all the victims of violence - in Afghanistan, Iraq, ME and other parts of the world.
Some thousands of Colombians - some dressed in white, hats, carrying elabirate floral arrangements intermingled with us turning the vigil in some sort of a carnival/Columbian rally (they did come from Columbia to pay homage).
I haven't been at Ground Zero these two years - it was the right way to finally do it.
There were lists of names, pictures, flowers, signs: "DO NOT BUID ON MY SISTER'S GRAVE". it was very emotional. Many hundreds of thousands of people were there.

Labor Day
bush celebrated it by cutting raises to government emloyees and overtime payment to all. We celebrated it the traditional way - with a barbecue in the garden. We sang, played music, Maya ran around nd conversed with everyone - we partied 'till midnight.
Tomorrow we go to the country for a few days.
