Ah, Jenni, as several others have already said: great part of the story. I just knew that Matt would go to his father's rescue -- of course, he doesn't know that's what's in store for him.
I love Marje. That one doesn't like to cook, either. You have drawn her as a competent business-type woman who also is warm and caring and has a good sense of humor. I like that in my namesake!<g>
As you can tell, I've gotten past my despondency over Clark's being gone. Now that I analyze my former feelings, I think what bothered me most was his inability to be himself. And, you see, you drew that picture of him so well that I was truly troubled by it.
