[QUOTE="Farmingmom, post: 649266, member: 18789"] OMG!! I think the kids answered a call from the doctors, found out I must be terminal, and just haven't told me yet. O.o Not only has today gone very well, but I just walked into the living room to find Kid2 and Kid3 having not only a pleasant conversation, but laughing and joking around with each other to boot! Holy smokes! It's been over a decade since they were able to have a civilized conversation. The old Warrior Mom in me thinks I must be dying and they just want to make my last days bearable. I know we'll probably have a honeymoon period where everyone gets along famously and I shouldn't count my chickens before they hatch. BUT...um...WOW! They're talking dinner plans, and who can make what, and whether they should use this or that for whatever dishes they're cooking up tonight. I was so NOT prepared for the two of them to surprise me like this. How absolutely wonderful!!! Even if today is the only day they ever get along and work well together, I will hold that moment forever. To see the two of them chatting it up...with no one else in the room to help the conversation along or keep things light...that's just...WOW!!! I think I just might be the happiest Mom on the planet. And I don't care if they serve toasted cardboard with burnt marshmallow topping for dinner. It will be the most wonderful meal of my entire adult life...hands down, bar none. :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D [/QUOTE]
