[QUOTE="Scent of Cedar *, post: 652825, member: 17461"] Oh, that is great news. It sounds as though these experiences have brought you closer. I was thinking about that aspect of my relationships with my own kids. These crisis times when we lose track of how to be the parent we thought we were break down barriers we didn't know were there. Our relationships to our children get to be very real things. I am not sure whether I would go back to my smug self from before. That is a strangeness, because I grieved every instance of loss with a stubbornness foreign to me, now. I don't know whether you were here with us when I kept going on and on about the flowers from FTD at the holidays. Everything is so complex and then, all at once, it isn't. How strange. What I learned is that I just love them. Who they are, how that reflects on me ~ it was hard to let go of that. Cedar [/QUOTE]
