DeltAlum,
Yea! I'm glad you love arrowgirls!
I said amen to both your posts in this thread but most especially the last one. Many say that I look and act much younger than I am but truth is, sometimes I feel so weary and old when I think about all that I've witnessed and learned about the realities of life.
Like almost every couple we know, Mr. Carnation and I have gone through unexpected job loss, job politics, shocking divorces of friends, sudden deaths of friends and family...I don't want to burst anyone's bubble at all, just advise them to prepare for what they can. Like job loss (make sure you're employable in several fields) and maybe divorces (pick your mate carefully). We don't want our own kids to be pessimists but rather optimists with a healthy dose of reality.
