Frank...you can take me and my kids to France!!! grin

of course the kidlets are excited...it is something new

Cori's daughter still gets excited to see her unmedicated bi-polar, compulsive liar, drug addict mother every 3rd weekend

she is 7 and knows her mom lies about everything
but
she still loves her
because no matter how f'ed up, she is still her mom

doesn't mean she doesn't love me

wish for your wife to be a great mother
expect her to suck assets
prepare for that

bworl is right
now is when the work begins in earnest
because you have time to focus on YOU

are you sure you can't keep the hamster...just drop in some food pellets, make sure it has water and clean it's cage with the kids when they come?

It might be nice for them to have hamsterbuddy at their house with you
