RE: Memoir Monday: My Mother and My Sadnesses

Ah @owasco, that was such a heartfelt read! How very lovely that your daughter did that, I've got a wet face. happy that you spent another night together, and sad,for you, and for me, because as you said so well...

when someone I love as dearly as I love this daughter leaves to go back to their lives, that don’t intersect very often with mine in real time.

But that is part of living, right? Our children have to find their little place in this life, and it's every mother's wish that they thrive <3
Wonderful response @owasco!

It is a great joy to see my remaining children doing so well in life. On their ownm independent, well-employed in their chosen vocations, and happy.

I let them go gladly, and try hard to hold back those tears. I always fail. As a line in the song I am currently learning, this:

puts a tear in your eye, but a smile on your face.

Lovely tune! Here it is:
