Thank you for this....Yes Jordan, this is very wise. Thank you for this.<BR/><BR/>And Christopher, I don't believe there is a cure for anticipation. It's probably good for us, in a way. Gives us a chance to try on other roles, see what it might feel like, so when we finally get there, we can make the necessary adjustments.kristen spinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12099514779097752438noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8532087472191027011.post-34564744139597978242007-06-10T20:26:00.000-05:002007-06-10T20:26:00.000-05:00That's a great post which offers a lot of wisdom t...That's a great post which offers a lot of wisdom to ponder. I fully agree that it's useful "to leave the door open a crack for a while," not least because it's probably a good skill to teach the kids.<BR/><BR/>My own problem, though, is kind of the inverse: I am already seeing (well, imagining) the endings before the beginnings are really underway. I mean, Julia's just three, and I spend far too many hours thinking about what it'll feel like when she goes to college, or gets married, or (heaven forfend) gets seriously ill. Is this endemic to people, or to parents, too? What's the cure?Christopher Tassavahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04547273541099162779noreply@blogger.com
