		<description><![CDATA[A very long time ago, when I had a tiny baby, someone told me that successful parenting is a series of letting go moments. I didn&#8217;t believe it then. But now that I&#8217;ve lived it, I know it&#8217;s true. I remember holding her, rocking her, inhaling the baby smells, feeling her little head nestling on [...]

		<description><![CDATA[Unremarkable. It means ordinary, lacking distinction. Not something we generally consider a compliment. But medical terms are strange. A test result that is negative is usually a good thing; positive means you have whatever awful thing they are testing you for. So unremarkable is a medical compliment.
