Cindy and all,
I have never spoken these words to anyone, but I always felt sad
for my Mom when she would speak of me and the outside world since I felt I
was *protecting* her from knowing how cruel the outside world could be. I
felt my Mom was so good and naive, that I didn't want to burst her bubbl.
It's funny how kids think!!!
