This is the first of a three-part series. Look for the next installment next Friday.
I’m going to tell you a story.
*****
Once upon a time there was a young boy named Nathan. He was ten years old and lived with his Mom and Dad in Seattle. His Dad was English and grew up in a modest but loving home in South London, while his Mom grew up in North Carolina and met her future husband while studying abroad in England. Nathan had no brothers or sisters. They lived in a bright green house in Ballard. His Dad worked long hours but always made sure he had Sundays off. Sundays were their day together.
One Sunday in late November, Dad had surprised everyone with Sonics tickets. Nate was so excited to go to the game he could barely sit still. Everyone had a great time, even though the Sonics got beat pretty handily by Utah.
