[...] Is this what it feels like to have a small child? At least I can put this one on a leash.

Yeah, it really is. It's good though to see how your kids turn out. The US was good, overall, it was just kind of weird. Things were really bad in Great Britain and Ireland at the time, I don't know how much you know about this world, but there's a lot of really terrible blood prejudice and it gets really violent sometimes. That's why we left. Then in the US there was just none of that fear and instability, and it took a while to realize that you didn't have to watch everything you say and do and feel afraid all the time. The kids at school couldn't really relate at all, but they were nice. In general though, it's a really cool country, because it's so big it's really diverse in like every way- people, land, climate- all that, whereas in Ireland mostly everyone's Irish and Catholic (maybe Protestant) and it rains all the time. There's a lot of good music and movies and stuff too. Americans are also very enthusiastic about Brits and Irish, so all it really took to make friends was for me to talk and once people heard my accent I was like a hundred times more interesting than I was back home. One thing that was kind of annoying was everyone liked to tell me they were Irish, because their great-great-great grandfather came from Ireland, and in the US most people's great-great-great something or other was Irish, so I just heard that a lot.
