Yes to that one.....one final Merry Christmas to all, and to all a good night, guys.

And, yes....I think "going home" to our childhood life can be sweetly and wistfully touching, but can also become disturbing confrontation with realities in our adult lives. Few things seem to turn out as we imagine...sometimes better, sometimes worse. But, the demands and promise of our present lives fortunately call us back. Like, for instance, cheering up your daughter and feeding her sore throat lotsa ice cream. Somehow, and healthily so, our children's childhoods come to eclipse our own.
