I am going to learn from my experiences and hubby's experiences and make sure that my son feels he can do anything he sets his mind to and that he works hard for.

Even if you know it's not true?

I will teach him realistic boundaries as well.

Hubby has always achieved everything that he has set his mind to. I think it is important to have balance. That why I said he will be taught that he has to work for things that he wants.

I do not think that telling someone that they suck at something is constructive.

We don’t mourn artists because we knew them. We mourn them because they helped us know ourselves.

For what it's worth, I'm sort of gaining a rep as the Meryl Streep of Madison - at least as far as my ability to do accents. The last time I did a play without one was...2006, I think. hmmm I've done four kinds of British (Cockney, Estuary, Midlands and RP), Mexican, Russian and German.

And I have also done a New Yawk accent onstage. I played Blanche in Brighton Beach Memoirs two seasons ago.

You're hired! We'll need another heavy New Yawk accent for any scenes that might include my aunt. hmmm And my accent...I don't even know what that is. It comes in and out from time to time.
