Kate's buddy Heidi came over to our house on Saturday night so her parents could go out on a date. Kate was thrilled, because she thinks Heidi's every move is hilarious, and I think Heidi had a good time too. And I snagged this photo evidence that one day, unless their tech-inclined daddies intervene, these girls are going to be literature majors like their mamas.

So studious.

Heidi: Kate, what do you think about Alice Walker's depiction of her character, Dee? Do you think that she is only represented in a negative light because her mother is an unreliable narrator?
Kate: Well, I think Walker is challenging young people like Dee to think critically of their relationship to the past and their heritage.
Heidi: That's the interesting thing about Walker- did you know she spent a summer in Kenya? And incidentally, the Kenyan name she was given was a variation of the name Dee gives herself.
Kate: That really changes how I read this narrative!
