Another Mother's Day alone, but I rejoice being a mom. With God as creator, Doug and I made beautiful, awesome, fun kids. A gift, blessing, challenge, comfort, joy, raison d'etre. I watch Dave, so like his dad in manner and laugh, Dana with dark eyes and hair with her dad's definite sense of right and wrong, Delaney loving to look after flowers, whistling while she plays, sharing her favourite memories of her dad. Mom, mama -yes, all intact. Joy indeed.
