Oh no! Thank you for that intro and sorry you messed it up! You're human, let the story speak! I have days like that when one word, sentence trips you and all you do is start over! You've got this!

"You go sit in the waiting room with Angie and Russ. You don’t have to listen to us adults talking. What we have to say is none of your business.” Oh, man! Family dynamics! In a family that large, there are bound to be a few assholes. Russell!? I'd slap him myself.. I mean if I were a slapper. I feel for the poor boy narrating the story, trying to navigate through all the words and silent gestures. You have made me more thankful for having only seven people in my family, and all of them normal, kind, sensitive human beings. Fine writing here, Ben!
