This is wonderful. A great collaboration. He must have been delighted. Did you get the Queen for Mother’s Day?
We were both delighted and proud.
No, I didn’t get the Queen. Apparently this poem came together the night before! Anita wrote me: ” I hope you don’t feel left out… you’re as much a part of those memories as Dad, you know. (Well, maybe not the table saw, but everything else.)”
I did get a gorgeous living wreath of succulents though – most unusual, and they know how plant crazy I am! We are blessed in our three daughters.
I love this! I am showing my daughters right now.
