Hey Frank, That's such a great story of love! You must be so thankful to that teen boy/man. How sad when kids don't get that sort of affection from anyone. How sad when kids do get it, but it's taken to be "abuse". "Every boy needs a man in his life." Here's a funny! When you said he used to "watch" you, I thought at first you meant he spied on you! Then I realised it must be what we in Britain provincially call an Americanism! We don't use the word that way. We'd say he was "looking after" you or "baby-sitting" (yuk!) for you, but not "watching" you! Still it's amazing that we can understand each other across the thousands of miles. Well, there you go. Does anyone else here want to admit to being British? Anyway, Frank, I hope you find yourself at home here with us. Welcome! With love, Jules |
