Subject: QOTD for Tuesday March 11, 2008

The following quote is taken from Lord John and the Brotherhood of the Blade by Diana Gabaldon, Chapter 8, �Violent Hands� Copyright (c) 2007 by Diana Gabaldon. All rights reserved.

�Is he not lovely?� Isobel petted the tiny stripe of hair lovingly. �I think he will look like my sister-see? He has her hair, I�m sure of it.�
With a sense of chagrin, Grey realized that, indeed, Geneva had hair of a deep chestnut color. No answers here, then. He was trying to think of how to return the child to the women without rudeness, but the boy settled the matter himself, by emitting a loud belch and decanting a remarkably large quantity of partially digested milk all over Grey�s shoulder.
�Does he not make you wish to marry at once and have children of your own?� Isobel asked, fondly patting the baby�s back��

I love this quote! John may like kids and get along well with them, but maybe it's just as well he missed most of Willie's infancy.... (NT) -- Karen Henry, 01:29:31 03/11/08 Tue
I thinkit's funny that he's trying to think of a polite way to return the child. He's trying to unload his warm, damp parcel and the women all think it's wonderful that he's so interested in babies. Interesting as well, how often he's asked to stand as godfather. (NT) -- kgp, 05:31:48 03/11/08 Tue
