THE HOUSTON CHRONICLE that Levi used to whisk off to the back room is now a steady source of the outside world. Each day, I look for news in the paper that the children will understand, and when there’s something significant, I talk and talk about it: There’s a company that just formed called Microsoft. (Their father works with a mainframe computer and has taken the children to see it.) The pope visited a synagogue, the first pope ever to do that! The Supreme Court just let the Air Force ban yarmulkas. But one day in March, the Chronicle headline reads: “Challenger Cabin Remains Are Found.” Navy divers surfaced with Christa McAuliffe’s remains while a solemn crew stood onboard to receive her. Then they went back under for the other bodies. McAuliffe was still in her blue flight uniform. I look at Leibl, fold the paper on itself hiding the story, and carry it to the back room. Say nothing.
