Because I was so desperate to be 5 back when I was 4, I developed a pretty good grasp of fractions pretty early ("I'm 4 3/4 years old!"). This may be what's behind Rachel's birthday obsession. At my present stage in life, of course, I'd do anything to take years *off* my age...<br /><br />Meanwhile, Dr. G, do what you can to patch things up with Rachel and her mom. And thanks for the story.A.
