Hello, my name is Suzanne and I am a control freak. Now this may be news to some of you, but my husband and children have known this dark secret for many years now. They have collectively sought help, but to no avail. They are doomed to live with a choleric perfectionist, till death do us part, or till legal age, in the case of my minor children.

A valid email address was not associated with your comment, so I shall reply here. Thank you for considering our family for your program.

Again, thanks for the kind words and consideration. God bless you and good luck with the search!
