You don't need Mary Poppins and neither does Punk. She needs you, her mama, who understands her better than anyone else because you ARE there every moment. I have a ton of respect for you and for how hard you've worked to make her happy. Don't discount how much of a full time job that is. And I know that despite an occasional thoughtless comment like "what else did you do?", your wonderful wife also knows that your time with Punk is a full time job.

BTW, really weird case of syncronicity; I read two posts (yours being the second) both of which mentioned visits by hopemcg and meglett. The really weird and neat part of this is that I know that you and the other poster do NOT know each other. The other poster is mamajoan, whom I've known since college. And weirdly enough, meglett and hopemcg and also listed as friends of oppendonnell whom I have known since high school.
