There are some days where, at the end of the day, you've done OK. It's the most out-of-control feeling you possibly can have.

We live in a society now where it's very rare for your parents to be around. It used to be like, your mother, grandmothers, your family around would help.

There is a lot of kissing in 'Boeing-Boeing.' A lot! And not pecks on the cheek or lips - although there's some of that, too - but full-on, farcical lip locks. My poor husband. He definitely wasn't prepared for as much smooching as there is.
