oh poor Madge...and poor Sybil and David too. I'm glad you show that Madge did love Sybil at least in the beginning. I suppose Jo must have felt somewhat displaced now her sister had her own little girl. David, being a boy, probably wasn't such a big thing to her but a girl might have brought it home.
Thanks Jennie |

less sympathy for my worries about Jo. In fact, every time I mentioned her, he would bring the conversation around to David and Sybil, and then bring in Margot and her two. The British Consul was making arrangements for us to have safe conduct out of Austria, so why he couldn't understand, I don't know. |

I must admit it hurt a little when Jo's twins were made far more of at the school than mine were. I did begin to wonder whether I was important to anyone but Jo.
