Never having had a VCR, Nova was not confined to PBJ sandwiches or oatmeal in the load slot. She managed to find other, MUCH more ingenious ways to make me realize what a tame child I had been. From scavenging icecream money in the neighborhood (under the guise of collecting for my cancer treatments,) to ripping her armpit while winning the Highest-jump-off-the-swing contest, kids not only make you lighten up, they also teach you how to balance parenting with remembering how great it was to BE a child. Not that she is grown, I miss the joy of seeing her light-bulb come on. PS... ask Paul how his brother does in heat and cold...
