It occurred to me tonight, while talking to the parents of other people's children, that I don't tell you often enough how much I love you. I remember that I kissed my grandchildren good-bye last night, and I told you that I love you, but I didn't hug and kiss you! Please understand that you are the light of my life (second only to my grandchildren right now--sorry!) and that any lapse of physical affection does NOT represent any lapse of love for you. The greatest satisfaction of my life, when my mother passed away when I wasn't there, came in accepting that she KNEW I loved her, and I KNEW she loved me. No regrets! I haven't always been the best mother to you, but it wasn't because I didn't care. I love you almost as much as I love Robin and Ryan! (Somehow, I think you understand.)
Mom
