wp_list_pages works but adding child pages doesn't

    I”m using this in the loop of a page template

    <article class="eight columns">
      	<?php the_content(); ?>
	</article>
	<aside>
	<?php wp_list_pages('title_li=');  ?>
	</aside>

    as expected, this lists all pages and subpages in the site.
    this does not work and nothing is shown:

    <?php if($post->post_parent)
  $children = wp_list_pages("title_li=&child_of=".$post->post_parent."&echo=0");
  else
  $children = wp_list_pages("title_li=&child_of=".$post->ID."&echo=0");
  if ($children) { ?>
  <ul><?php echo $children; ?></ul>
  <?php } ?>

    nor does similar code used to modify wp_list_pages to get only the parent and siblings of the current page.
    Am I missing something very simple here?

    wait, it started working but without showing the parent. this bit of messy code shows the parent as a heading then lists children

    <?php $parent = get_the_title($post->post_parent);
	if  (is_page() && $post->post_parent ) { ?>
<h4><a href="<?php echo get_permalink($post->post_parent) ?>"><?php echo $parent;?></a></h4>
		<?php } ?>
<?php if($post->post_parent)
  $children = wp_list_pages("title_li=&child_of=".$post->post_parent."");
  if ($children) { ?>
  <ul><?php echo $children; ?></ul>
  <?php } ?>
