Title
"Ballerina, Turn Around" John Fitch IV Column
Description
Here Cormier talks about his eight-year-old daughter. Much of the article consists of him offering various numbers that define her - her age, her weight, her height, etc. These numbers, this arithmetic terrifies him - for each day that proceeds she grows older and older. Eventually, she will no longer be his little girl. Just as her older sister, then 18, she will leave her childhood behind.
