My parents' long and happy marriage was a great ideal to live up to, but a tough one.
The best Christmas present I got from my husband was a week to do whatever I wanted.
Family holidays and weekends are really brightly colored memories, full of my mother and father, rather than our nannies and au pairs.
The way I miss my daughter Esme is to worry about her. It is not a pleasurable longing. It contorts my body and scrambles my brain, makes me stop breathing, clench my jaw and my fists, it makes me frown, and makes me blind and deaf, in fact entirely without sensory perception.
My parents taught me everything and set me up for life. I owe to them all the things I'm passionate about: music, art, the people I love, my career and family life, the fact that I have children and the way that I raise them.
