Oh, I see. I have Monkey Face for my Voice of Reason. She tells me useful things like, “Don’t kill Bill: he’ll leave home someday,” and I send her chocolate.

My 3rd child was an alien, too, and so is the 6th.

LOL! Friends on FR are priceless!

I keep trying for a monkey instead of an alien. Maybe this 6th time’s a charm? :0)

**************************************

That seems like good advice to me, but then again, I don't know Bill.

Get to know Bill before he leaves home. It will all make sense, then.

I don’t know, he looks pretty normal to me. Nice smile, too!

All TC’s kids are “normal,” but a couple stretch the limits of the word. They are normal within their own normalcy. ;o]

I like every one of them!

Well, they are her children. Apple, tree. You know what I mean.

I knew you’d understand! (There are no aliens...just differing normalcies.)
