A Very Good Sentence

I love this, about small children in an extended family:"They are the people who forgive us for no longer being what we started out wanting to be, who don’t remind us how we are no longer what we were and who have no memory of us when we were any better than we are now."It's by Taffy Brodesser-Akner, at the close of her piece in The New York Times Sunday Book Review last week.   You can read the whole article here:  http://tinyurl.com/d8rkrck.
