Congrats, AC. She's cute.
And Risa... my respect for you actually went UP after that story. No, I don't condone violence. But as much as I appreciate truly nice people, I don't like push-overs. Your "mother" instinct seemed to rear up in that situation, and you just don't #^$% with a mama bear's family you know.
It's important to have limits and the fire to back them up. Otherwise you're always just a walking victim.
