Lille, Thanks for asking. She's allowing it to go much further than she had before, so there's progress.
That said, the dynamic here has changed considerably over the past few months, with much less emphasis on having to have physical, and more of a meandering into the physical when everything else lines up. Everything else lining up is no longer a blue-moon occurrence, rather it happens several times a week on average (there are some weeks where nothing happens, other weeks where we are inseparable and the kids are rolling their eyes at us). Overall, the tone here is much improved.
