Jim...
Once the newness wears off, and the two:o'clock feeding becomes routine, 
you can start thinking of the future. Remember, she will always be a 
kid, regardless of her age, and she will always need your advice whether 
she accepts it or not.
My son (26) is now working for me and it has been an experiment that has 
been quite successful. Luckily, he was on his own for several years and 
had most of the sharp corners knocked off by other bosses before me.

CONGRATULATIONS!!!
