Very cute, Barb. I too love The Sound of Music, so this was a great way for Lois to realize what she is doing wrong.

I have to add this though:

You should have seen me when I saw the comments folder for this story. My jaw about hit the floor. I was certain that I'd somehow managed to repost my story in my stupor today (four hours of sleep in the last 36 will do that to a person <G>). About a year and half ago, I wrote an nfic story When One Door Closes. Over the last couple of weeks, I've been tearing it apart and rewriting it as a pg story.

My confusion was only deepened when I opened your story file and saw that the stories begin with the exact same scene. Luckily it only took a couple of paragraphs for me to realize that the stories are vastly different, otherwise who knows how long it would have taken me to get over my confusion. <G>
