What a wonderful story and memory, Kelly! And a good reminder I should write more notes to my kids.

And thank you for the very generous mention of my Ephemera article at the end. That is much appreciated and the perfect encouragement this morning!

Beautifully expressed. I go through similar scenarios periodically, with my own loved ones. While simultaneously adoring and relinquishing my hold on them, I also manage to piss them off every time I open my mouth. But the love remains, and always will.
