Date: 19 Jan 2011 11:03 am Title: Middle Child Syndrome Poor Hoss, I bet he was feeling just a little bit jealous when Joseph was born and he lost his place as the baby of the familyBut being Hoss, he would have soon got over that and just wanted to help look after his baby brother, as Adam had looked after him.It was good that Marie realised Hoss needed to start being given some responsibility for Joe, although I am sure that in the future there will be times wshen he wishes he wasn’t responsible for him, seeing as how Joe turns out to be such a mischief magnet LOLLittle Joe foreverLynneAuthor’s Response:Thank you, Lynne.  As a middle child myself, I often felt overlooked after my younger brother was born.  Ben might not have understood what was wrong with Hoss but Marie could tell the boy only wanted to help.  I’m so pleased to know you enjoyed this story.

I'm a historical archaeologist who loves westerns and Bonanza is my favorite. I wrote my first Bonanza story in 2006 and the plot bunnies are still hopping. The majority of my stories include the entire family and many are prequels set during the period when Ben and Marie were married.
