LOL! Even if the question is 'too big' it's fun to listen to what they come up with.

If she is willing to write her quesions down for later during 'mommy breaks' that might give you more of a feeling of control. Is that a possiblity?

Maybe you could start by dictating a list of questions that you come up with.

I don't think this will keep up forever. I always valued reminders that childhood is short.

People ask how I can bear having my son at boarding school this year. 'Especially since you two are so close' - I tell them that I feel not one bit cheated, since I did 18 years (or more) worth of parenting in the first 13 years. I'll bet you know exactly what I mean, yes?

Love and MOre Love,
