Episode 3172:

Nikki Cox writes about the stretch of days when her four year old started a pre-k program and her ninety nine year old grandfather died, two endings and two beginnings arriving together. She describes the moment on the playground when she understood that parenting is not only about holding a child close but about giving them a push when they are ready to go. The lesson she draws from both is the same one: be there for the life, not the funeral, and spend the quality time while the people are still here to spend it with.

Quotes to ponder:

"It was the day that I realized being a parent isn't just about holding your child, it's also about letting them go."

"It's going to be a balancing act between keeping her safe and cuddled and letting her be free to grow."

"Spend time with the living. Hug your babies, hug your grandparents. Enjoy them while they are yours to enjoy. Nothing is forever."
