bonny, surfing from javachik's link, this one seems to be fairly appropriate, too. Lots of good reviews by parents of toddlers, with a few objections--which I always figure denotes something's working right.
Jeez, don't get all Movie of the Week. I was just too cheap to buy you a real present.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

It's a meant to be thing Beverly. I clicked on the 'surprise me' button to look into the Family Book and it brought up the page with two female characters and two kids, one a bit older than the other. That one is definitely on the list. Thanks.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
I called in sick today. I don't ache all over or have bad headaches like I was, and I hardly cough anymore, but I'm still tired and still am having mild fevers. I guess I'll see how I feel tomorrow morning before deciding whether to go to work....

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
So, is it just because reprogramming takes more time, or is there some other reason Reversal of Fortune isn't showing up on my programming guide?

My brother took the B'ham job. Which...I'm happy he made the best decision for him, it is an awesome opportunity combined with financial and domestic stability, that they won't have major upheaval in their lives, and am happy he's still only an hour by plane away. but damned, it would have been fun to have him closer!

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
I'm sorry you won't have him closer, Sarameg, even though it sounds like a good opportunity.

bonny - are the moms seeking a therapist in their area? They need to find someone who is knowledgable about attachment disorders. I am forgetting how old you said he was, but here are some we have found useful for some of the issues:
- When I feel Angry (part of a whole series on When I feel....)
- Taking the GRRR out of Anger
There is a book in the "L'il Bill" series by Bill Cosby that deals with verbal bullies and teaches the skill of saying "So?"
- Happy Adoption Day
- Adopting the Hurt Child
- Raising the Hurt Child
- Attachment in Adoption
THen there are many many books on raising boys without a man in the house, best they look some over and find one they like, or start at a library before buying.

Oh my god, y'all. It looks like a military jet went down somewhere in San Diego - near Miramar, I think.
Meep. [link] Scary.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
It went down around noon, brenda. Two houses, three confirmed dead and one missing and likely dead. The pilot was okay.
It was less than three blocks from my uncle and aunt's house. Where I will be for Christmas Eve again. They are okay. My aunt and younger cousin were home because it was his birthday.
Tragic thing.
