The 6 year old came up to me and asked what I was a nerd for.  Before my answer I said at her age she should go on ahead and be a nerd for as many things as possible–>  grab and explore anything(s) you like —>   really get into it(s).

“Like I’m a ninja-nerd, and a speed dance and animal nerd,” she described.

Ah yes, and I further explained that at my age you should have probably honed in on a thing or maybe two if you’re blessed that you’re really into, with nerd-like dedication. That seemed to work best in most cases.

So you ask me what I’m a nerd for daughter  —>   well I am for Daddy’ing and am also deeply committed to nerding out on Magic.
