One thing I've been happy as peach pie about - because I'm all about the children and the happiness of a woman because that makes the happiness of the home - is that nannies day cares and babysitters are all collapsing which is forcing moms and dads to raise their children at home.

He that hath wife and children hath given hostages to fortune for they are impediments to great enterprises either of virtue or mischief.

Hugs can do great amounts of good - especially for children.
