yes, the children make a huge difference, don't they? My kids are so *different,* yet they both have strength and a faith in the goodness of the world that I admire and fear for, both (being the optimist that I am;) One of them told me on vacation that she was happy because she had parents that made her happy! I'll probably remember that forever, and I'm humbled that she managed to deal with a moody, erratic mother and still feel that way.
Oh Nik, dear, you are too hard on yourself - don't we all lurch in fits and starts?
