I've heard it said that our personalities are formed by the age of 5 years old. JT, it sounds to me that your GS will be just fine. What a great little guy. The toilet paper on the seat is so funny. Don't you guys have paper seat covers where you are from? Is that just a California thing?
Pauline, I'm sure that the only thing that mattered to your mother is your happiness. I can go through terrible pain worrying about my kids and it instantly goes away when I know they're ok. I don't even think of the things that my daughter put me through. Those things are over and done with and I smile because she is happy.
Hugs to you all,
MG
