"I'm going to do some writing, Mama." Olivia said this to me a few days ago, as she picked up notebook and pen and headed to the kitchen table.
"Oh really?" I asked. "What are you writing?"
"Well," she mused, opening her notebook and carefully uncapping her pen, "I'm writing a poem."
"That's wonderful," I said. "I love poetry, don't you? Are you a poet?"
"No," she said. "Actually, I'm Olivia."
This week is a prolific one for Olivia, the writer and the logician.
