grandchildren be included in for-
mal family pictures? Should they
be treated equally with the
“‘blood"’ grandchildren in receiv-
ing corsages, seatings al table, and
so forth? This should be a joyous
occasion, and I'd like everyone to
be happy with the arrangements.

GENTLE READER — You
have all the ingredients for a
joyous occasion — warmth, gen-
ecrosity, and the attitude that how
people got into the family counts a
great deai less than the fact that
they are there. Miss Manners
knows such a happy family cannot
be achieved without a great deal of
tact and tolerance, in addition to

the central ingredient of tove.

Your children and grandchildren
are therefore probably already
sensitive to the nuances of offering
fove without seeming to demand
recognition. By no means should
their enthusiasm for this event be
restrained by the fact that there are
relatives with longer and closer
claims. This is not a competition.

But you should make sure that it
is not made to seem like one, with
petty distinctions accorded to some
and net others. Why can’t lots of
pictures be taken — some with
your branch of the family, some
with others, some with everyoue?
If you can’t strew a few flowers
around to everyone, just give some
to your mother-in-law.
