My mom and I used to listen to records, read, and take train rides

My mom and I used to listen to records, read, and take train rides across the country in the summer. It was a very chill life. She didnt expose me to anything that was ahead of my development, but she expected me to adjust to her world – she did not expect to adjust to mine. – Martha Plimpton
