Sydvish: Why/How I Love my Mom. Great post.
I don’t think the rather phony upcoming holiday has much to do with it, but for whatever reason I’ve had a lot of conversations about mothers lately. My mother knows I love her, I think, but it’s rather difficult for me to write about why without become sentimental; at best, I’ve been able to allude to some of what I admire about her while talking about other things.
Since she’s not a fan of the greeting cards and the routinized, capitalized rituals surrounding ‘Mother’s Day,’ I’ll just note here: I love you, mom!
