520    "The time for do-overs is over. Ever since she became a 
       parent, Mary Louise Kelly has said "next year." Next year 
       will be the year she makes it to her son James's soccer 
       games (which are on weekdays at 4 p.m., right when she is 
       on the air on NPR's All Things Considered, talking to 
       millions of listeners). Drive carpool for her son 
       Alexander? Not if she wants to do that story about Ukraine
       and interview the secretary of state. Like millions of 
       parents who wrestle with raising children while pursuing a
       career, she has never been cavalier about these decisions.
       The bargain she has always made with herself is this: this
       time I'll get on the plane, and next year I'll find a way 
       to be there for the mom stuff. Well, James and Alexander 
       are now seventeen and fifteen, and a realization has 
       overtaken Mary Louise: her older son will be leaving soon 
       for college. There used to be years to make good on her 
       promises; now, there are months, weeks, minutes. And with 
       the devastating death of her beloved father as well as a 
       surprising turn in her marriage, Mary Louise is facing act
       three of her life head-on. Mary Louise is coming to grips 
       with the reality every parent faces. Childhood has a 
       definite expiration date. You have only so many years with
       your kids before they leave your house to build their own 
       lives. It's what every parent is supposed to want, what 
       they raise their children to do. But it is bittersweet. 
       Mary Louise is also dealing with the realities of having 
       aging parents, and that marriages change. This pivotal 
       time brings with it the enormous questions of what you did
       right and what you did wrong. This chronicle of her eldest
       child's final year at home, of losing her father, as well 
       as other curve balls thrown at her, is not a definitive 
       answer-not for herself and certainly not for any other 
       parent. But her questions, her issues, will resonate with 
       every parent. And, yes, especially with mothers, who are 
       judged more harshly by society and, more important, judge 
520    themselves more harshly. What would she do if she had to 
       decide all over again? Mary Louise's thoughts as she faces
       the coming year will speak to anyone who has ever cared 
       about a child, a parent or a spouse. It. Goes. So. Fast. 
       is honest, funny, poignant, revelatory, and immensely 
       relatable"--|cProvided by publisher.
