I am not going to lie; that adorable cover baby is not the only one feeling stressed at the moment. I’m admittedly a little anxious after reading this issue, and you probably will be, too. There is not a family WIN in our midst that does not have issues around finances. Ironically, money worries often hit parents hardest right when they bring that new, beautiful bundle of baby love home. 500 Most prospective parents are wage earners before baby makes three. The fact that our state is ranked as the sixth least-affordable state for child care for infants is sobering. (“Child-care crunch,” p. 14). We see some improvements in our ratings as the 10th least affordable state in the nation for preschool. But still, ouch! The high costs require that parents make numerous calculations to evaluate less-than-perfect, sometimes painful solutions. For instance, does it really pay for both parents to go back to work and leave the infant with strangers, even if they are devoted The Gift of Anxiety and caring child-care providers? Should one parent off-ramp given the Turn your child’s worry into growth high costs of care, even when this means diminishing their future earning potential?

And while the downward curve of her mouth would seem perfectly normal had I just addressed, say, terrorism, my talk was about how we can better accept and support each other. Here she comes, I think, arms locked, question loaded. I’ve triggered something. She wants to take me down a notch, there is contempt in her eyes. Write of Way Write “That was cute,” she said. I just stared at her. And if my mind could have abandoned my feelings, it would have. I could feel a slow hiss seeping out of my pride, like when my bicycle tire rolls over a thorn. I’d just given a talk at the State Capitol for a group of visiting writers. Cute was not what I was going for. I thank God my skin has grown thick. “So, where do you see yourself going with all this?” she said. “All this?” I said. “Where do you see yourself in five years?” I have a limited tolerance for this generic question. I never know if it’s a need to instruct or to compete, but the two always seem joined in people like this. They can’t seem to fathom that life can be less conventional and more entrepreneurial than they know it to be.

Known as one of the nation’s cultural centers, Seattle has more arts-related businesses and organizations per capita than any other metropolitan area in the United States, according to a recent study by Americans for the Arts. Our city pulses with the creative energies of thousands of artists who call this their home.
