I think as adults we take change in as a matter of course, but we need to remember that children and teens haven;t had the time and experience to always adapt gracefully (heck I barely manage grace some days, lol!). Understanding the impact of change and how it might manifest helps us really understand our characters. <br /><br />Angela @ The Bookshelf MuseAngela Ackermanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01808259088625142389noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1898179382293852278.post-5754698690571746392011-04-03T10:41:11.192-04:002011-04-03T10:41:11.192-04:00THanks Laura! :0)THanks Laura! :0)C.R.
