When I was in my mid-20s, my parents divorced, and I hated realizing they were humans with feelings, fears, anxieties, etc. I just wanted them to be fine! and of course, I see it now with my son -- I don't want to be anything but strong and supportive for him -- but of course, that's not realistic. :/ Thanks for lifting up a book I hadn't heard of!Audrahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07511122937603890352noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7343567357202223317.post-54061839918598149852017-07-08T10:26:42.126-05:002017-07-08T10:26:42.126-05:00Thanks so much for writing about this.

I was just saying to Tom, no one but your own child would come in your house and drink the last of the orange juice! I love it, as I'm sure your parents love doing all those things for you. It makes us feel still loved and needed.

I'm waiting for their Library Request system to come back online so I can ask them to order both for me. :D :D :DJenny @ Reading the Endhttp://readingtheend.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7343567357202223317.post-48049404032618397812017-07-06T07:01:51.107-05:002017-07-06T07:01:51.107-05:00Aarti, this book sounds perfect for me.

And I'm like you - totally regressing whenever I'm around them. Its like I forget that they were these separate people from me when they were younger. I definitely have to get my hands on this book! I'm so glad you posted about it.

I totally agree about regressing.
