My wife was telling me about a couple we are scheduled to have dinner with next week.
“I don’t know these people,” I said. “How did we meet them?”
“Clara introduced us,” Elysha said.
“Clara?” I asked. “Our five-year-old daughter?”
“Yeah. Clara met their daughter on the playground, then met the girl’s parents, and introduced them to me. They’re really cool. You’ll like them. Score one for Clara.”
I shouldn’t be surprised by any of this. Someone recently asked me how we manage to sell out our Speak Up storytelling shows so quickly. “Where do you advertise?” he asked.
“We don’t,” I said. “We have Elysha. She knows everyone.”
And apparently Clara is now following in her mother’s footsteps.
