Picking up my 16-year-old from his weekend ski trip, I knew that there were only two questions that would be appropriate.

Opening question, “Did you have fun?”

Son providing the anticipated response, “Yep.”

Glancing down at the half eaten bag of candy in my car’s center console, I provided the follow-up, “Want some gummy bears?”

Proving that all was right in the universe, my son responded, “Sure.”
