Great essay -- and you...Sex!! :-) Lisa, woo-hoo! Great essay -- and you're absolutely right. I think modeling a healthy intimacy (of course I don't mean .. you know....) for the kids is really important. My husband has a daughter & a son (17 and 14). Since they're not my biological children, there's more of a natural barrier of sorts, but over time, everyone's gotten much more comfortable. I think what's most important is that his children see that we are friends -- that it is possible for there to be not only 'life stuff' together, but also companionship and intimacy. I hope it'll help them not have some of the low expectations I see a lot of kids having toward romance and partnership. Who knows. Thanks for being brave! :-)Laraine Herringhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05890043873658222111noreply@blogger.com
