Jill: It's no big deal, Mom. It doesn't matter.
Lillian: Well, apparently it is. He says that we don't talk, that we don't share feelings. Now, that's not true, is it?
Jill: Well, in a way, Mom. I mean, you're always the one that's saying we shouldn't get emotional.
Lillian: When did I ever say anything like that?
Jill: All the time.
Lillian: When?
Jill: OK. For example... There was that time in Virginia. I was playing in the sandbox and you came up to tell me that we were moving for the third time in two years, and I started to cry. And you said, "Don't get emotional. Crying isn't going to help. We're a military family, this is who we are."
Lillian: Well, I'm sorry, honey, but I don't remember that.
Jill: It was an important conversation, Mom.
Lillian: Jill, I had five daughters. There were lots of important conversations.
