If I couldn't provide Z w/the "typical" 2-parent household experience, at least I could hold onto the farm & provide a stable homestead for him.<BR/>[Myself, I was born/raised/attended school in the same small segment of the Metroplex, extremely insular]Valhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03152215204773184788noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25964040.post-28202447660520986902008-08-08T14:30:00.000-05:002008-08-08T14:30:00.000-05:00Des - Wow!

My kids didn't fare as well though, we moved ten times in ten years, although in that time we stayed put for 5 years.

And that's the place I count as my Hometown. We moved to the Chicago 'burbs 2 months before IDesmond Joneshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07829959101276150279noreply@blogger.com
