Sounds like the motives were mixed - as they always are in real life -- you did for him, you did it for the children, and in the end you also did it for yourself. Afterwards, I suppose each of us should just ask "Well, did that make the world a better place?"Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8895543561579893807.post-25806513672789558262010-01-03T20:07:18.686-06:002010-01-03T20:07:18.686-06:00Everyone can learn from that story, Jean.

Your kids are wise beyond their years, but, maybe it's cuz they've got a wise old lady. Thanks for the encouragement on a new time, a new day. Peace to you and your family.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
