There's no place like home

I am sitting here watching a family play, which is the culmination of a weekend spent with the family. All I can say is for all the petty fights and slights that can happen over the course of familial life, there still is nothing like getting together with family.

The play, which is a take on Amelia Bedilia, has some people playing in character and others acting. Either way, it is entertaining, and shows the creativity of the kids, which really are the natural offshoots of the parents.

Parents (and Grandparents) who are creative, artistic, interesting, opinionated, intelligent and funny.

I am proud to be part of this family, warts and all.

Dr G, the weekend would have been even better if your natural finickiness wouldn't have cut off the great fun of letting someone be your hands for you while you explained how to make an ice cream sundae.
But a great weekend overall. Agree with all you've said.

It WAS a fun weekend and great to spend time together as a family. I miss you all already.

I believe that the word "WART," as used in this context, is actually an acronym:

Where
Are (the)
Rebbe's
Trousers?
