You're absolutely right. I was remiss in not mentioning the father, especially if he supplied the pointed elvish ears!

But on the day of birth, with all the sympathetic birth pains he may or may not have had...mum does all the work, and baby does her job as well.

Gran...well, she's where it all began, and everyone wants to keep in her good graces so she'll be an on-call babysitter.

Get some rest now, freda...you're the one who knows best what's down the road!
