Tim, that is so true. And when I first became a parent I found myself
changing allegiances from Buddy to Mrs Glass very, very quickly. And I
became a much greater Mrs Glass as he grew up.  (Where is that little
boy he once was? How could you wear those shoes?) I think that everyone
has different phonies at different times in their lives, just as we have
different heroes, inspirations and loves. The little voices sit on your
shoulders , or like Eliot's Animula, run over your toes and around the
room.
