> yes, very bad. no i am not a miss again, i think i gave up on that sometime in my 30s. i think when i became a 'matron.' this changes everything, i suppose.
>"Matron" ..... uh-oh, i not at all sure about this .... lemme check my http://www.m-w.com here:
"ma·tron
"Pronunciation: 'mA-tr&n
"Function: noun
"Etymology: Middle English matrone, from Middle "French, from Latin matrona, from matr-, mater
"Date: 14th century
"1 a : a married woman usually marked by dignified maturity or social distinction b : a woman who supervises women or children (as in a school or police station) c : the chief officer in a women's organization
2 : a female animal kept for breeding "oh, okay, that seems real hokey-dorrie.... and most honorable ... i just did not have that many positive connotations for 'matron' ... now i know better..... congratulations on your matronousity.

> ahh, not so little. and no need to congratulate! it wasn't (isn't) heroic to have had her! but the best thing i have ever done, to be sure, was to bring her into the world. by the way, jimi - i loved age 4! they are learning so much in that year, real social interaction takes place. they are becoming aware that other people have needs and feelings, too, which is a true milestone. actually, i loved all my daughter's ages, love the one she's in now, just on the precipice of puberty. it's not long now... periods and boyfriends and sullenness (we have some of that already!), the first drink, the first smoke.
>Oh, i'd say congratulations are due all the more, modest, life-giver, good-mother person: congrats and way to go!... to us guys, let me tell you, child birth looks pretty darned heroic (!) and as a parent i can say that raising sentient human beings, done well, is wonderfully heroic ..... our 4 year old is our hero and, yes, 4 is way fun and way funny ... your daughter is blessed to have such a hep mom! ... especially one who is prepared to deal with all those real-deal girl issues.... you are cool.
