Partway during the morning I began to feel an overwhelming gratitude for my children...which seems a little odd when you consider I would not be spending any part of the day with either of them today. Maybe it is the solitude that pushes my memories back to days of hands-on mothering when each moment of my children's lives was superimposed onto my own. Each decision they made, was my decision, each breath they took was my own.
Go ahead, ask me what I got for Mother's Day. I got two amazing children standing of the cusp of adulthood and I couldn't be happier.
