The stories embedded in each are so rich. Looking at the child under the table, my memory rushed back to a restaurant on NYC's Columbus Avenue, as one of my dearest friends told me why she had to leave her husband. Her infant was asleep under the restaurant table, in the car seat. There we sat, head-to-head, holding hands as she unfolded her tale. I had no idea of her sorrow. We had just been to the christening. I find myself with my hands on either side of my face (the Home Alone pose, as it’s known) gasping at these. The stories embedded in each are so rich.

Six degrees, indeed!
