maddie,
YES! i m sure mr maddie will be fine. and so will you ... in the long run. in the short run, skirmishes will occur. that is ok too.
i sayang myself lor!!! and forget abt looking for affirmation fm the man, bcz the affirmation will not come *blink*. men are by nature problem solvers, so they will look for problems to solve, and irritate their wives in the process. such is life.
continuing this train of thought.... 3 things i know to be true abt families, inspired by Sarah Kay (search in ted.com under talks). [she is an english teacher and one of the things she asks her students to do is to make lists. and find their stories there.]
1. blood ties are not easily broken. blood is truly thicker than water, and reason goes out the window.
2. a child is made in love, let him grow up in love too.
3. watever happens, have a dialogue. make it a loud, heated, passionate dialogue if need be! in dialogue, 2 pple can work out their differences. in silence, positions and hearts harden.
syz,
