Thank you everyone. I somehow missed the start portion in selectors. Right now I do not have a site created per say, but am doing a few exercises of incorporating process wire into basic css templates to see how it all works. I was able to get it all working with test data. Really starting to like this CMS, the fields part really makes this compelling to use. I have played with drupal and it took me way too long to build a decent site, while this has taken me very little time to get it to move in the direction I need it to. I look forward to being able to play with the repeating fields stuff when that is released.

I am trying to figure out how to get a page that can pull summaries from other pages that are part of a certain section. These would automatically pull the latest ones as they are created. This would be used in something similar to a newspaper/magazine style site. Right now I am using <?php $firstsummary = $pages->get("parent=$page, sort=date"); echo $firstsummary->summary;?> to pull the first one, but I do not know how to do some sort of offset. I am not thinking about using a loop, because some of the html will be different depending on where it is on the page. Any pointers in the right direction could be helpful. I am rather interested in ProcessWire and am coming from doing textpattern stuff and once in a while wordpress sites.
