| [00:08.81] | There's your teddy bear, Max. |
| [00:13.97] | He just loves that teddy bear |
| [00:16.21] | that Grandpa Philip bought for him. |
| [00:20.01] | I took him to Philip's office yesterday for a checkup. |
| [00:24.45] | You should have seen the look on his face |
| [00:27.18] | when Molly gave him the injection. |
| [00:28.89] | Oh, did he cry? |
| [00:30.48] | No. |
| [00:33.01] | My dear little boy just looked up at me as if to say, |
| [00:37.43] | "Mama, what are they doing to me? Help!" |
| [00:43.33] | How did you feel? |
| [00:45.19] | Tell the truth. |
| [00:45.62] | Didn't you feel terrible? |
| [00:47.50] | I sure did. |
| [00:50.39] | I held him closely. |
| [00:52.79] | I kissed the top of his dear little head. |
| [00:57.37] | He looked up at me. |
| [00:58.36] | He tried to smile. |
| [01:03.69] | Being with him helped. |
| [01:07.62] | Helped him? |
| [01:08.28] | Or helped you? |
| [01:12.05] | Being a mother is not easy, |
| [01:14.05] | if that's what you mean. |
| [01:19.19] | Speaking of being a mother, |
| [01:22.06] | I've been meaning to ask you |
| [01:23.28] | what you were thinking about regarding going back to work. |
| [01:27.44] | I know Rita Mae called. |
| [01:28.70] | I can imagine what is going through your head. |
| [01:31.41] | I'm sure you can, Ellen. |
| [01:33.36] | There are so many things to consider. |
| [01:36.40] | One thing that makes it easier for you |
| [01:38.03] | is that you have us. |
| [01:40.95] | Max will always have a family member to watch over him |
| [01:44.96] | while you're at work. |
| [01:46.52] | I didn't have that when Richard and Susan were born. |
| [01:49.81] | What did you do? |
| [01:52.45] | I chose to continue with my career as a music teacher. |
| [01:56.09] | We hired a woman to watch Richard and then Susan, |
| [02:00.81] | and I continued with my career. |
| [02:06.00] | Do you think you made the right decision? ? |
| [02:09.12] | I think I did. |
| [02:10.99] | But when Robbie was born, , |
| [02:12.62] | I decided to give full-time attention to raising Robbie. |
| [02:16.73] | I felt differently at that time. |
| [02:18.81] | And you gave up your career as a music teacher? |
| [02:20.75] | Not exactly. |
| [02:22.14] | I continued to teach piano lessons at home. |
| [02:27.03] | How did you feel about being away |
| [02:29.98] | when Susan and Richard were babies? |
| [02:34.15] | I think I did the right thing |
| [02:35.86] | for them and for myself and for Philip. |
| [02:38.71] | We needed the money. |
| [02:39.72] | Remember? |
| [02:40.77] | Well, we do too, Ellen. |
| [02:43.17] | Everything I earn helps us towards getting that house |
| [02:47.63] | we want and need. |
| [02:49.50] | I can't wait till he's just a little older. |
| [02:51.89] | Our toy company makes the most wonderful toys for kids. |
| [02:56.41] | Max thanks you. |
| [02:57.68] | I thank you. |
| [02:58.60] | And Richard thanks you. |
| [03:00.30] | Now may I please say hello? |
| [03:01.96] | Hello. |
| [03:05.01] | Hello. |
| [03:07.52] | I miss Max and think about him all week long. |
| [03:10.54] | We talk about him at dinnertime. |
| [03:12.48] | Will you please try to relax? |
| [03:14.54] | I've never seen you so wound up. |
| [03:17.24] | You seem to be enjoying the pressure. |
| [03:20.50] | The truth is, I am. |
| [03:22.22] | My job is not an easy one, |
| [03:23.72] | but I really enjoy it. |
| [03:25.85] | That is exactly what I wanted to talk to you about, Susan. |
| [03:30.40] | What's the problem? |
| [03:31.67] | Marilyn's career. |
| [03:33.43] | Well, my choice of careers. |
| [03:36.68] | Choice? |
| [03:38.89] | My career as a fashion designer |
| [03:42.37] | versus my career as a mother. |
| [03:45.34] | Why does it have to be one or the other? |
| [03:48.01] | That's what I said. |
| [03:49.27] | How's that? ? |
| [03:50.41] | Why can't you do both? |
| [03:53.22] | She's right. |
| [03:55.58] | Both? |
| [03:57.02] | Well, that's what I do. |
| [03:58.43] | I have a job, and I have Michelle. |
| [04:00.13] | I take care of both to the best of my ability. |
| [04:01.66] | It's not easy, but what is? |
| [04:02.04] | And that's what I did. |
| [04:02.43] | I did both with Richard and Susan, |
| [04:03.33] | and I did both with Robbie. |
| [04:04.39] | I thought you stayed home with Robbie? |
| [04:05.29] | I did. |
| [04:05.77] | But I was lucky enough to have a career as a music teacher |
| [04:08.09] | which I could continue at home. |
| [04:13.32] | Why can't you work at home, Marilyn? |
| [04:15.98] | You're very talented. |
| [04:18.43] | Designing dresses is a career |
| [04:20.40] | you could establish out of your home, |
| [04:22.96] | couldn't you? |
| [04:27.15] | I don't know why I didn't think of it. |
| [04:31.65] | It seems so simple now. |
| [04:34.51] | For a year or two |
| [04:35.49] | I could stay at home with Max and do my dress designs. |
| [04:42.52] | And you could make your dresses at home. |
| [04:45.87] | Sounds like a great way to solve the problem. |
| [04:49.00] | That could solve your problem, Marilyn. |
| [04:52.93] | I'm going to call Rita Mae at home |
| [04:54.47] | and ask her to come by and talk about it. |
| [04:56.91] | She wants to see Max, anyway. |
| [04:59.77] | I think that really answers your questions, Marilyn. |
| [05:01.93] | You can do it. |
| [05:02.88] | Do your designs at home--here. |
| [05:06.20] | And let Rita Mae do the selling at the boutique. |
| [05:09.44] | And you can both benefit financially. |
| [05:12.85] | I'm going to call Rita Mae right now. |
| [05:15.98] | Oh, Susan, thank you so much |
| [05:20.04] | for coming all this way from the city to talk to me about it. |
| [05:23.59] | I hope you don't mind |
| [05:24.43] | having taken so much time away from your busy schedule. |
| [05:27.52] | Are you kidding? ? |
| [05:28.93] | I don't mind at all. |
| [05:30.70] | As a matter of fact, |
| [05:32.00] | I came to spend some time with my favorite nephew. |
| [05:35.18] | I think you should call Rita Mae right now. |
| [05:37.98] | I think your idea of working at home is perfect. |
| [05:40.71] | I don't know what I would do without you. |
| [05:43.40] | I'm lucky to have you all. |
| [05:45.79] | We are lucky to have you, Marilyn. |
| [05:48.97] | And so is Max. |
