The thing is that by the time they are Nicholas' age - they don't let you forget to give them a meal. <br /><br />What do you think about going berry picking? I've never been. Would you guys be interested? This weekend we have a wedding but I am open after that. If not - we'll catch up another way.

You got me right on a day, at a time, when I was wondering to myself why my relationship with my own boy seems so much more complex than with my daughters. <br />I know I tend to second guess myself a lot, especially when it comes to positions of control. You're wise to write these experiences down so that when you're tempted to do so yourself, you can look back and see that you made the intuitive choice and it was the right one for that day.Hannahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11034180396689442335noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8850703275190174771.post-58025543971244445612010-06-03T11:33:45.903-07:002010-06-03T11:33:45.903-07:00You are a wise woman.You are a wise woman.Annahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14121943812874333831noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8850703275190174771.post-55214872255368482572010-06-03T11:08:19.404-07:002010-06-03T11:08:19.404-07:00Sounds familiar.
