Jen, I can’t decide on the appropriate caption for that great pic of you and Harrison at the playground. I’m considering, “Look at the tote board, mom! The market is finally going up again”, or “Here comes Simon Cowell, Mom! I am going to Hollywood!”.

I echo your thoughts regarding Rick, Pam. We’ve all seen an artist become successful and no longer have time for the common folk.
Rick is a distinct exception—completely accessible, attending fan get-togethers. When he talks to his fans, he is totally authentic and his genuine, caring self.

But since you opened the door with “mensch”, Pam, and Jen describes Rick’s beautiful smile and eyes, and her neverending squeeze, I can’t help but think of the expression that I outgrew at about three years of age: “shayna punim”. I’ll leave the translation to you, Pam.

I actually recall seeing Roger in “A Man of No Importance” years ago, with a great line (paraphrasing here), “My middle is getting thicker but my hair is getting thinner.” For heaven sakes, Roger makes Mary Kate Olsen look chubby and Rod Blogojevich (sp?) look balding. I am trying to convince Roger that those traits make me the best candidate for the next revival. He is indeed a sweetheart, Jen.

Re Wanda’s comment on your great writing…Stubbleyou, don’t look back! Quoting Terry Gibbs, “Somebody’s knockin’” and we’re about to let her in.

I’m looking at these great picutes of Harrison and his hat, and I’m convinced YOU aren’t the only actor in the family. And I’m thinking you might also be part circus performer the way you juggle roles as Mom, wife, actress and appreciative audience member! That was so touching describing your visit to La Jolla and seeing Rick…what a rush of memories and emotions that must have been! Enjoyed seeing you on Nip/Tuck and hope to see you in a another project. Thanks for taking time to share photos and stories. God bless, Lulu

Terrific pix. Dr. Zeuss was VERY popular in our house years ago. Harrison is the bomb. And btw you are looking quite good yourself! And happy!
La Jolla sounds magical.
Jen, I can feel your energy thru your writing every time. When I first discovered your blog I read every one from the beginning and I was mesmerized!

This post brought tears to my eyes, my friend!! So agree with Wanda about your writing talent. Please tell Harrison that Green Eggs and Ham is my absolute favorite Dr Seuss story (‘I am Sam, I am, I am’)and I too, asked my mother to make me green eggs! Loved your touching words about Rick, his show, and La Jolla. He is a true mensch, 1 in a million. And yes, making dinner and doing homework at the same time IS a real feat!!!

XO, Pam

YOU should consider writing, my friend! I’ve mentioned this to you before. When you write, I can see, feel, taste and smell what you’re talking about, it’s so vivid. I teared up reading this cuz I could so strongly feel what you were feeling. What a lovely experience for you! NOW, I’m laughing picturing Harrison with the hat on and the whiskers, how adorable! Throw some green food coloring on those eggs for him! LOL! So glad you got to see Rick and Roger! AND so awesome to see a post here from you again so soon! Love you lots and your two boys too! Wanda
