Pop- If you have used your store of patience and love to build your children into people who are so sure of you that they are completely and utterly secure in that patience and love, your gifts have been well spent.
I'm so much more impressed by a person who gives their best in private, to those they love, than a person who saves their best for their public appearances.
From the way that your family looks at you, I'd say that you are the kind of person who you'd be proud to emulate if you were a stranger looking in.
Though I've heard you mention that board game playing is a problem for you, I've doubted it because you have always been so gracious every time I've seen you. Even when I've thought you were slighted and felt like knocking someone in the noggin for it, you were patient and understanding.
I'm great at playing board games, but I envy your patience with people. Your skill is alot more portable.

Pop - I didn't play many games either. Mostly because I get irritated and irritating if I lose. Heheheh. I get really elated when I win and my mood lifts considerably, (hopefully not annoyingly so) but I don't always win. (Contrary to what I would like. )
Point is, no one's perfect. Least of all me.
