Christine: This is one of those moments when I regret the distance between us. Alise and Simon played so well together that I’d have her over here all the time! Would also make sure she got in a word edgewise…

Yep, same here. I’m grateful for playdates these days.

Makes you wish he had an imaginary friend to whom he could confide.

LOL, Rita. My mom said it was a toss up–my horrible beyotchedness at 13 or my brother not speaking for two years from 15-17 or so, other than a grunt once in a while.

Let me just say that one of these days you will wish that he would tell you what he is thinking. Just ask Tia and Perry how much they get out of Nathan. Then of course he might be like Uncle Steve who was pretty much a compulsive confessor. Either way, GOOD LUCK.

Kids are exhausting, period. Whenever I used to visit Suzanne in Chicago we’d do nothing but normal “house” stuff all day–kids to school, grocery, laundry, pick kids up, etc.–and by 8pm I’d be *exhausted*. I don’t know how parents do it. And please tell Ruth “ouch!” and I hope she is better soon.
