Nope. When the chips are down. They were/ARE right here. Not only as they were taught, but as the examples they saw set before them. When I complimented Debbie recently, she said, "It was the way I was raised." I have the first-born with those qualities, and I have the *Original Baby* as she is known, with those qualities. They balance each other, complement each other. She will even have the privilege of admitting me for my next IVIG! I've not mentioned it to anyone else, but the absence of the middle child is pungent with me today. Missing from working with his siblings.

Billie, Billie, BILLIE.

This brought a smile to my face, despite the mix of emotions I felt while reading of the other changes and events in your life. Very poignant post.

If we do nothing else in our lives ever, contributing compassionate, kind and giving children to the world, well raised and able to do the same is the biggest accomplishment ever.

I'm so glad they're there for you when you need them, taking such good care of you and Jim during difficult times. I can only imagine how hard it must be to sit at a distance while Jim has aurgery, but I bet he'll be back before you know it, and be just fine, too.
