The last years before a child leaves home move faster than any that came before, full of small moments that suddenly feel like they are running out. This is a steady companion for that stretch: how to hand over responsibility a little at a time, which conversations matter more than any packing list, how to manage your own quiet grief, and how to let go in a way that keeps you close. Warm, honest, and reassuring.
