You should have had more kids to spread it out then, shouldn't you?;) I know the feeling, as mine are the only grandkids for both sets of grandparents.

My biggest trouble is getting the two boys to understand who got what. A railroad similar to yours appeared in my living room christmas morning ... along with two others later on (not matching) and several toolkits. For the most part they're communal property between the two, but every once in a...

Ok, thanks. I wouldn't think that would really require an active intervention.

I'm getting the feeling that we're once again on the same wavelength, but talking different languages. Do you mean that you've trying to get him to not expect next Christmas to be as good as this one? Or to not expect Christmas to be everytime he sees his grandparents?

Why do you have to reverse anything? It's one special day. So long as he understands that it's limited to that one day, I don't see where it's a problem. It's not like a diet where a binge one day has to be made up for the rest of the week.

Alright, now I gotta ask. What's the issue?

She was over at our place for a few minutes last night for gift exchanges and such. I don't think the smile dropped off her face the entire time.

The worst is that she's got the better job, but he's got the 'legal aid' lawyer who's done this a thousand times already. And he's got his new girlfriend knocked up so there's sure to be the "sibling" angle played there.

So long as it helps, who really cares, eh? Her father's on my 'short' due-for-a lumbering list.

Well these two know each other from time up at the lake, and she's totally out of her element with this separation/divorce crap with her parents. Not to mention that her dad lives about 100 miles out of the city ... so he's a real anchor for her at the moment. It's a sad story.

Oh, there's more than one .... 'cept that she's fought most of the competition off. Unfortunately, she's with her father every other week and that lets the other girls back at him. But he's only got eyes for her. Not that he won't defend the others against any of the boys .... or the hall monitors.

My biggest horror is that, in his class is the daughter of a girl that went right through school with my brother, and they're well past best friends. If he arrives after her, she takes his lunchbox and takes him over to hang up his coat, etc. He's warned off another kid in the class that made...

If that's the worst he's got for ya, you can start wearing out the knees of your best suit thanking Gawd, coz mine turns 5 tomorrow and he's looking to have way too much of his dad in him for any teacher's comfort.

Not at all. Same thing happened to Britain.

Cato assures me he's got the JJR archive, so I'm less stressed about that. But now Cato's place is down too. Gotta wonder what door was left open.

The same thing that happened to americans in every sport they compete internationally in. Once the playing field was leveled with respect to money and training .... they were mediocre at best.

The place, not the man.

Wow. Wasn't much point in fixing this place, was there?
