Mother's Day

I was visiting with family today and revisiting memories. A mention of what happened just a few days before Christmas when I was six years old and she was not yet 30. She's got a way of weaving it all into some sort of eventual triumph. Always there's an ultimately warm and happy glow. She can see it clearly while I cannot see it at all. Hallmark channel stuff. Who am I to tell a different story now? 

But we sat in a room together, several of us, relatives, and it felt good.
