My hippie parents were always open to talking about the mind-bending wonders of meaningful, loving sex -- and how it's the "glue" ew of marriage -- but I knew little of my mom's sexual and romantic past.

On Friday nights, I would load my sad belongings into a lumpy duffle bag and kiss my children, whom I had never been separated from before, goodbye.

Now, today My mom told me she was going to a book sale in town at the library she does charity cervices at.

I'm Jack Butler, nice to meetcha.

My husband moved into his father's house and I stayed with the children during the week, but nearly every weekend he would come and stay with the kids at our house, so that they would have the stability of being in their own home, around the things that made them feel the calmest.

We all joke about the difficulty of the "birds and the bees" conversation, but what's talked about less often is the reverse: adults sitting their parents down and having "the talk.

It is so nice to be able to see you in this new stage of Mother.

The rest of what she learned was less shocking, but still fascinating, and humanizing.

i know it seems far fetched but go fill a bag full of syrup, hold the end shut and tip it upside down.

I congratulate you on how you discover yourself in this role.
