“ for all you’ve done for me. i love you,” i stammered. i opened the envelope and a gift card fell out for athlete’s footgear. the handwritten words were simple and familiar:

“the longest journey begins with a single step." what’s next?
love, ms. willow

a) when is the next game?

b) what else can i do for you?

c) where in life will your steps take you?

d) how will you use the gift card i am giving you?
