Thanks everyone! Meg - I just wanted to offer you some sympathy with poor Abbey! Just give him time. Emily was also very distressed with the babies and went into hiding until she discovered her "niche". She just did NOT know wjat to think of them and seemed to wish they would disappear but they did not so SHE disappeared for a while
Abner will come around In fact, I bet he might even take on the Eliot role of playmate
I love you ABNER!!!
