Thanks, V...talking with my S11 is always a work in progress - since he keeps letting me know, little by little, that he's picked up on more than it seems - and so he has more questions than I would have expected...he recently asked me if my W is having trouble now because of anything her father might have done...I'm still figuring out the best way to handle that questions...for now, all I told him is that sometimes people we love can be harmful to us...and not even know it...
My New Year's plans are pretty simple - my son and I are flying back to LA on New Year's Eve - and then we'll just spend the night at home - staying up till midnight, watching the ball drop - and then sleeping in and resting the next day...should be just fine.
