Every summer my family would pile into our Ford station wagon for a trip back to Pennsylvania to visit the grandparents. It was guaranteed to be a hot, noisy, cramped trip. But watching drivers' mouths move as they counted each one of us packed into that car made it fun. We often thought of placing a sign on the window that said, YEP, THERE'S NINE OF US IN HERE!

Even on the bench, the Harvard players were jumping up and down, celebrating every basket made. “I admire the energy on the bench,” coach Delaney-Smith said. “Group...

Meanwhile, the judge's words from May ring as true today as they did seven months ago. "This child isn't getting any younger.... It should learn the name daddy. I love my daddy. I want to be with my daddy. I love my mother. I want to be with my mother. [He] should learn those things...
