Does Pete babysit? That would make him very relevant.
I think I am better suited as a grandma than a mother. I like to entertain kids but I'd rather skip the 24x7 responsibility. When my son was born, my mom came out to stay for a week. One time when the baby was crying loudly and inexplicably and I looked to mom for help, she said:
"Look, I only did this once and it was 30 years ago."
And she handed the baby back to me. I look forward to doing the same someday... but not too soon. How long until a jazz pianist is ready for the responsibilities of raising a family? (cough cough)
