I am a full time receptionist (8:30-5:30) so between 6 & 9pm we are reviewing homework, making dinner, taking baths, & cleaning up the house. (Just typing that makes me tired :-) ). So coming from my perspective I commend all that you do for LuLu, Kay, & Super Dad. Take care!! Hi Julie,

As a very senior airline pilot, I was the Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday LA-London guy. Left at 3PM TU, land back in LA at 2PM TH. Had a great nanny who was there only when I was gone. The boys were usually kind enough to save up all their behaviours for my return. Retirement is great, I get to be home every night! (And I still get all the behaviours.)
